Looks great, Pat. In subsequent word-smithing, we likely would want to clarify the fact that (sans the A/B assertions) one can use rdfs:range with a datatype class to constrain property values to the value space of the datatype without imposing any lexical constraints, and that rdfs:drange imposes both value and lexical constraints. Thus, if one only cares that a given property has 'integer' values, one need not define a separate class just for integers, but can use an existing datatype class such as xsd:integer, borrowing only its value space for the constraint, so to speak.
