Lady, EVOLVED 
learning cursed knowledge (reading the Owl 2 R·D·F‐Based Semantics specification)
if you are wondering how bad it can be, you have clearly never read a Semantics specification
Follow
anyway the actually interesting insight wasn’t in that specification but in the specification mapping R·D·F to Direct Semantics which states, with no fanfare, that all owl:OntologyProperty’s (note: this term is not documented) are silently transformed into owl:AnnotationProperty’s (interesting for the insight that properties of ontologies are functionally annotations in their implications)
it’s not Inconsistent to say that ontologies are a kind of object, it’s just Wrong
@Lady You object, at the very least?
this is fine for what i’m doing so far but i’m still waiting for that Moment when a specification inevitably tries to use an Ontology Itself as the subject or object of an object property, thus implying that owl:Ontology is an owl:Class not merely an rdfs:Class (these are not the same)
