Scientists do use commercial off-the-shelf computers for HPC, why
not to use industrial software? And similar things we can say about
use of external reasoners (linear logic, Coq, Isabelle, etc.).
If you can attach coq to tinkerpop and make it work ... sure. But you
would probably have to completely rewrite both coq and gremlin in order
to do this. And that is a huge amount of work.
I never tried Coq or Isabelle, but the provers I've tried (E and
Vampire) were using resolution
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolution_(logic), which doesn't work for
a para-consistent logic like PLN, at least not out-of-the-box. On top of
that PLN is probabilistic (or even meta-probabilistic we could say).
These make it difficult or at best unnatural to use traditional
automatic theorem provers. Maybe there's an easy way, or a more general
framework that I missed, but that was my impression when I studied the
domain.
