transclusion vs inclusion vs owl:imports #3

Closed rat10 closed 1 year ago

rat10 commented 1 year ago

In transclusion.md it is discussed that inclusion actually includes a graph whereas transclusion only includes by reference - meaning that transcluded graphs can't be changed, whereas included graphs are "owned" by the including graph. Is this really a viable distinction, corresponding to a real world practice?

transclusion describes the process of recursively nesting graphs. inclusion otoh describes the import of a graph literal into a graph (which is not recursive).

anything else - referencing, owned, etc - is meaningless esoteric babbling
