Hoi,
When you leave out qualifiers, you will find that Ronald Reagan was never
president of the United States and only an actor. Yes, omitting the
statements with qualifiers is wrong but as a consequence the total of the
information is wrong as well.

I do not see the point of this functionality. It is wrong any way I look at
it. Without qualifiers information is wrong. Without statements information
is wrong and without the items involved the information is incomplete and
wrong.

As I see it you cannot win. Including this type of RDF export produces
something that I fail to see serves any purpose or it is the purpose that
you can.

Thanks,
     GerardM
