it is critical in the following entailment rules

{ :rule10a . ?d a rdfs:Datatype } log:implies { ?d rdfs:domain ?d } .
{ :rule10b . ?d a rdfs:Datatype } log:implies { ?x^^?d ?d ?x } .

and I wouldn't like to miss it, as we then have that

xsd:decimal a rdfs:Datatype .
xsd:integer a rdfs:Datatype; rdfs:subPropertyOf xsd:decimal .
:jenny :age "10"^^xsd:integer .

entails (*)

:jenny :age _:x .
_:x xsd:decimal "10" .
_:x rdf:type xsd:decimal .

otherwise datatyping seems meaningless to me
