Hi James,
> - why should it be proper to compare a variable and an rdf term, for example an iri?
To conclude their not the same thing.
Then you can do things such as pattern matching.
For instance:
if (left.equals(right) || right.termType === 'variable')
doSomething();

Because all Terms have this, and it's also a way of comparing equality.
Also, these values might be used for serialization.
Best,
Ruben
