Gerard, I am willing to help. What do you want explained? (We can perhaps
move that off-list.)

Hoi,
What I mean and what I say is that there has been noone willing to explain
why certain items are in there. When you ask questions it is seen as a
threat and consequently I find I am treated like one. The consequence is
that I do not care about the structure and totally ignore it. This is a
shame because on occasion I do expect this has an impact.
Thanks,
GerardM

The subclass of and instance of statements are

many WDQS queries, often with * expressions to navigate the hierarchy.
I think that's what Gerard meant: you don't have to know what's under the
hood, as long as it works. When you get some unexpected result, you go
check what went wrong in the chain of subclasses etc. This is at least what
I do, although I also work with some more traditional people who want to
know the full ontology before even entering their first statement (of
course they get lost for a few months).
