Many times in the document, instances are used in connection with the term "name", that is, we replace a blank node by a name. We need to go through the document and always use rdf term instead.

I refer to these sentences in the spec (and possible others):

"An instance with respect to a vocabulary V is an instance in which all the names in the instance that were substituted for blank nodes in the original are names from V."

"A proper instance of a graph is an instance in which a blank node has been replaced by a name, or two blank nodes in the graph have been mapped into the same node in the instance."

we can no longer use the word "name" here since names are literals or iris.
