Reserved? In what sense? a single URi can have multiple properties
and hence multiple uses.
I think he means reserved in the sense of the question I asked you
about nested graphs - if graphs can't nest then it seems difficult,
on the face of it, to have a graph that groups a set of statements
that, say, comes from one data provider(the provenance information),
and within it graphs that mark groups of statements in order to talk
about evidence for them.
