You're not given me anything to grasp onto, other than ex-cathedra
pronouncements about what a supposed minority of people speak. And I
haven't tried to impose any assumptions about what's easy in this
thread, I'm just trying to understand what's unreadable about RDF, and
you're not answering me. So, please explain to me what the readability
problem is with RDF.
