I agree - the issue also came up at the BioHackathon last week...
basically, as Tom Oinn phrased it, "if you're thinking of using
owl:sameAs... don't!"
That is the brief form of what he said... the longer statement, earlier in
the day, was "It's like handing someone a loaded gun, cocked and pointed
at their foot with their finger on the trigger, then giving them 10 cups
of coffee and have someone standing behind them with a pair of cymbals"
I love how flowery Tom can be! His comment about a Starbucks raspberry
frappe with Pilchard was also quite memorable...
