Seeing the number of reactions to that question I wonder if it isn't an
opportunity for a new note of the OEP comparing the different options
and the pros and cons of each one.
(1) ex:myCar rdf:type ex:SecondHandThing
(2) ex:myCar ex:isSecondHand "true"^^xsd:boolean
(3) ex:myCar ex:isSecondHand ex:true
(4) ex:myCar ex:hasStatus ex:the_second_hand
(5) ex:myCar ex:hasState "second hand"^^xsd:string
For instance, for me one of the most important differences between
option 1 and the rest is that option 1 does not directly allow negation
(e.g. ex:myCar ex:isSecondHand "false"^^xsd:Boolean) unless you
introduce a class disjoint from ex:SecondHandThing.
I believe the comparison between these options could be a good subject
for a best practice note.
