I think this doesn't make any sense, but I'm not going to object to it. I would have voted -0.5 had I been there, FWIW. If you're a client, and you're expecting a graph, but get a dataset, then surely something has gone wrong? At best it's going to be confusing to all concerned. Just silently ignoring this kind of semantic mismatch strikes me as unwise. Also this rather ignores the issue of implementing it - how should a generic RDF consumer (e.g. a triplestore) know whether the end-user was expecting a graph or a dataset?
