That is, "unless the parser (e.g. SiRPAC) produce an explicit node for the reified statement". The problem comes, IMHP, from the historical parser SiRPAC, assuming that the underlying model did NOT retain statements'URIs. Since existing APIs for RDF model have an URI/id for statements, parsers should rely on that feature.
