Re: ISSUE-29: Re: When is equal and when is it nonequal (eg, the IRI interface)

Hi Nathan,

> Still remain unconvinced by projections...

Yes...I realise that most people aren't convinced. :(

Yet what surprises me on the issue is that SPARQL is probably the most
common form of querying RDF, and people almost always use the
projection form of queries when using SPARQL:

  SELECT ?name ?homepage ...

There must be some reason why people favour this technique over
obtaining a ton of triples and working through each one, or using the
CONSTRUCT form?

In which I am inspired to keep chipping away at the 'unconvinced'. ;)
