SHACL is now more mainstream, with good/efficient tool support, and closer in spirit to the original XSD constraints.
Closed World constraint execution, provided by SHACL but not OWL, are more applicable to the GLEIF dataset e.g. it should be reported if a L1 record references a RA or a ELF that does not exist.
This is a significant change that needs review and planning.
