Hi Sandro,
isnt it more like..

"because you want to be sure about what informations can be derived 
"straight away" about that that name and you dont really want to trust 
for the eternity whatever decides to give you at the time of browsing a 
process running in the machine pointed hopefully by whoever currently 
owns the domain "root" to the name that you meant to use (an arbitrary 
amount of time earlier) in your RDF "
the English is crooked i know.. but :-)
Say some guy speaks about his family and uses his domain for URIs . then 
he passes away or whatever a spammer gets the domain name and here you 
go. He really meant to speak of his beloved wife and instead nasty pics 
are "resolved" by the spammer web server. and there is really nothing to 
do about it..

Comparison: could it be though sorta of like using bnodes?. its NICE 
they're not addressable from the outside so you can create small 
"islands" of rdf which will not be inferred with by merging with other 
graphs..
