Qualified Cardinality Constraints
I only see disadvantages in requiring a different keyword for qualified cardinality constraints in the functional syntax. The need for the extra keyword occurs only in RDF because of the paucity of its syntax—there is no advantage to having the limitations of RDF impinge on the functional syntax.
Alan - agreed by all. This proposal has been removed
N-ary Functional Syntax Constructions
EquivalentClasses, DisjointClasses, EquivalentProperties, DisjointProperties, and DifferentIndividuals reflect the ability in the functional syntax to have n-ary constructs. A singular version of their names would not be descriptive. Note that SameIndividual is singular because its semantics that makes multiple names for the same individual.
InverseProperties
InverseProperties is much more descriptive than InverseOf in an axiom, and serves to distinguish the axiom from the constructor.
