No, they don't. They have a responsibilty to do what they are being paid
to do (or want to achieve for their own purposes) in a rapid and
efficient manner. The point of standards is to make it easier to do this

Yeah, I have heard this argument before. Soon as you give me an
assayable and testable definition for reality, I'm right with you.

Alan,
that is a superb message, very well-articulated
I will ponder it.
And as I said I don't really want to keep doing this theoretical dance and look
forward to more substantive conversations.

Don't think so. It is a simple application of the pattern of having
information about something. The statements don't have to be true.

Well, I don't quite know what to say. I feel a bit like a designer of cheap,
workable, everyday town cars, and I have a customer who wants a Ferrari.
I agree, Jeremy, you have a hard problem here. It sounds like you need
statistical or probabilistic methods to keep track of these small likeliho

True but t
This is a broken definition of "good" to my mind. It suggests that we
should make all the distinctions that we can make, all the time.
Unfortunately, this means that everyone bears the cost of the complexity
all the time also.
A good data model should be an accurate reflection of biology. But
Hi,
Good point.
I personally find strange to deal with sequences in RDF.
On one side, a sequence is a perfect identifier of itself (once if we factor
out experimental errors).
However, identity of sequences doesn't matter much (similarity of sequences is
what counts). So we could have perfect id

Is this issue wholly addressed by having a URI for the reference? Or is there
some subtlety that I am missing here?
i.e. I would expect a minor version of a reference genome to have a different
URI from a different minor version of the same major version of the reference
genome …. am I naive?
