We could agree on that, and that's why we formulate so called *lemma*s
(aka queries) in RDF/N3. For the moment they have the form of conjunctions
(logical AND-ing). For examples see the *.lemma.n3 resources linked from
http://www.agfa.com/w3c/euler/
Lemma results values (proof values) are also in RDF/N3 notation.
