I have noticed similar points - a lot of reasoner based software, and graph internals software, and probably triple storage software will allow subjects as literals - but when considering systems and applications that actually do something useful (rather than just the internals) then you interface with people, and the difference between a literal and something else is crucial. This is where I see the costs. JeremyReceived on Sunday, 11 July 2010 16:23:13 UTC
