I don't see how this would meet my criteria and motivate distinct 
"graphs" without involving change-over-time.
I'd address the use case like this:
  GRAPH :g1 { :Obama :placeOfBirth :Kenya }
  GRAPH :g2 { :Obama :placeOfBirth :Hawaii }
  :Trump :believes :g1.
  :Biden :believes :g2.
and I guess we can meet my first criterion by adding....
  GRAPH :g3 { :Obama :placeOfBirth :Hawaii }
  :Romney :believes :g2.
So we have three "graphs", two with the same triples.  (Criterion 1 
met.)  We have no change over time (alas! :-).    (Criterion 3 met.)
But are there any properties you could sensibly put on :g2 that wouldn't 
also apply to :g3?   I can't think of any.
