Why's the checkLocalName() called in some constructors but not others..?

I can't authoritatively answer that, it does seem inconsistent and may be just historic anomaly.

Though the fundamental lesson here is to stick to Property URIs which are legal within the normative RDF syntax (RDF/XML) otherwise something will bite you eventually :)

Also the Util.splitNamespace starts at the end goes back to the last /
(i.e. before the 99) then winds forwards to the end and returns 31.
Hence the localName is "".

Correct.

The notion of localName here is precisely that of XML QNames, i.e. it must be a trailing NCName (which can't start with a digit), which means that your URIs have an empty local name, which is why they can't be used for properties in RDF/XML syntax, which is why they are best avoided.
