It wouldn't be rdf-valid (for exactly the reasons you give), but it 
is valid in rdfs. In pure rdf, 'rdfs:range' and 'rdfs:Property' are 
just urirefs with no special meaning, but they do have a special 
meaning in rdfs.  That is why we have to  have extra rules, or 
something, to capture all of rdfs.
