That will go in circles! Plain `model.read` goes to `RDFReaderRIOT` (The
old RDFReader interface adapter to RIOT) which makes all calls go to
`RDFDataMgr.read(model,...)`. If that calls `model.read` we have a loop.
`OntModel.read` overrides `Model.read` and does "get basic data" via a call
to `super.read` (which is `ModelCom.read`) and then "load imports".
So the layering is that RDFDataMgr does the basic read operations, with the
indirection of `StreamManager`/`LocationMapping`.
The key here is going via `FileManager.get().readModel` bypasses an
overridable `model.read`.
