If a resource owner wants to make available an RDF representation of his resource, he is welcome to do so. WWW already supports that. But if his failure to do so has any impact on your life at all, you have the wrong expectations about what SW is. Even WWW doesn't break if the "owner" of a resource fails to make a representation available, the site is down for a period of time, never registered in DNS, or whatever.
