It is important to note:

1. Turtle -- targets everyone
2. JSON-LD -- targets JSON developers.

Identity is an issue for everyone i.e., programmers and non-programmers 
alike, so if there is going to be a default (not that I think there 
should) then Turtle is the natural candidate. Ideally, you should simply 
support Turtle and JSON-LD by default :-)

History teaches us that format spats (however they manifest) ultimately 
detract from the big picture re. web-like (or webby) structured data 
representation -- that leverages HTTP URIs.
