The very first assertion on this, your first link, is "is sameAs of: Michael Rodrick". And you wonder why I keep distracting your technology demos by talking about data quality...

        

Again, do you not understand the fundamental point? There is an inaccurate assertion in a relation in a give data space. How do you fix it if you can't see it in the first place? Subjectively bad data can lead to subjectively improved data.

You take a single assertion from a 21 Billion+ data space, and decide that's the essence of the matter. Finding this assertion (needle in the 21 Billion+ haystack) is part of the point. Negating the errant named graph all together is another, post discovery. Not reasoning on owl:same assertion is yet another.
