IMO No. Others may disagree, of course. TBC is very flexible as is RDF itself as far as what triples it will let you create. As I mentioned, my issue is about the semantics of these statements. IMO mixing things as being Class AND SKOS Concept is bad modelling practice. When do you use subClassOf vs broader/narrower .. or even rdf:type vs broader/narrower. Will the tool into which you might feed this RDF complain about individuals also being classes when it is clearly NOT a case of punning. Tools like EDG, for example, expect a separation between "data model" and “data" in order to generate UI frameworks (GraphQL schemas for EDG) and for performance optimisations … which this violates. For EDG Data Graphs to work you’d also need to make the classes SHACL NodeShapes so it can generate the framework for its model-driven UI. FW|IW RDF being so flexible is a “problem” at times. RDF does not understand the semantics of languages built on top of it which leaves following best practices up to the modellers. Just because a tool does not stop modellers from doing less-than-ideal things does not mean they should do those things. Again … just my opinion. FYI If one were following the scenario 2 I mentioned, LoadLevelType would be a subclass of Concept, not a member of Concept. I guess the obvious question is … if you are not using any of the SKOS semantic properties, then why import and embed the whole of SKOS in this picture? If you just want prefLabel, etc annotations then just add that property to your ontology (i.e. copy and paste from SKOS and adapt for your case).
