Hello,
You seem to fundamentally misunderstand how the standardisation process works.
The point is not whether i understand standardisation or not, the point is your argument
.... At the time that SPARQL 1.1 was standardised indexing was not a widely used extension so there was no impetus to standardise it.
No supply, no demand. The torture creating for each property text-indexing out of SPARQL syntax and than beeing even not compatible to other SPARQL implementations yields no statistical statement whether text-indexing has been widely used or not.
In my posting i pointed up, text-indexing should have had top priority starting from scratch to develope a query language for Semantic Web environment, you don't think so and this has nothing to do with 'fundamental' knowledge of a user, this has something to do setting different priorities.
Where SPARQL is now relating to text-indexing, this is 'fundamentally' not acceptable for me. And you seem to be 'fundamentally' satisfied...
