So, again, I wonder why there is a breaking change proposed for the RDF dump instead of no breaking changes or limiting breaking changes to the WDQS only. While backward compatibility is important, it isn't the only consideration. As pointed out by @dcausse on wiki <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Contact_the_development_team/Query_Service_and_search#Blank_node_deprecation_in_WDQS_&_Wikibase_RDF_model> having divergence between Wikidata and WDQS is also problematic. We already have a small number of documented divergence <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Indexing/RDF_Dump_Format#WDQS_data_differences> and increasing this number is also problematic. Given the current discussion, it seems that keeping as much backward compatibility as possible at the cost of divergence between Wikidata and WDQS is the way to go.
