"Consistency" of dumps in different formats is a questionable thing. What would 
it mean to have JSON and RDF "consistent"? Of course they'd contain same 
entities, that's a given, and the data would be kind of alike. But even values 
may differ - i.e. RDF has no standard for representing coordinates, so we have 
to choose something. That something will not be the same as JSON. Also, if we 
want to represent dates in standard way - e.g. xsd:dateTime - we'd have to 
modify them, slightly or substantially. Same goes for many other things which 
look slightly different - ranks, units, truthy statements, etc. Ultimately, 
we're basing on the same data set, so excepting bugs we'd have consistency on 
that level, but beyond that I'm not sure what it is.
