Given the following:

###
@prefix con: <http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/pim/contact#> .
@prefix owl: <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#> .

<http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i>
 con:preferredURI <http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i> ;
 owl:sameAs <http://identi.ca/user/45563> .
###

An OWL-capable processor can make the following conclusion:

###
@prefix con: <http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/pim/contact#> .

<http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i>
 con:preferredURI <http://identi.ca/user/45563> .
###

However, given:

###
@prefix con: <http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/pim/contact#> .
@prefix owl: <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#> .

<http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i>
 con:preferredURI "http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i" ;
 owl:sameAs <http://identi.ca/user/45563> .
###

It will not come to a mistaken conclusion about what timbl's preferred
URI for himself is.
