Nit: Datalog isn't as powerful as Prolog, that's the whole point of it as a decidable fragment of first order logic (and it's seeing increased use in SMT/fixpoint solvers and databases)
But yeah, if getting rid of the whole SemWeb stack, triples, and their many awful serialization formats, design-by-committee query and constraint languages (keeping just the good parts) means we can finally return to focus on Prolog, Datalog, and simple term encodings of logic, I'm all for it.
