I fail to see how that helps express these concepts in a unified way
across JSON, JSON-LD, RDF, and CBOR (to name a subset of the syntaxes

it's not helpful in that none of those options or design patterns exist

... and why we're having this discussion:

https://github.com/w3c/rdf-dir-literal/issues/3#issuecomment-496006350
