It's not nothing, even did a consulting gig years ago. Also, some non-profits such as Wikidata are putting it to good use I guess. But not everything benefits from representation as graph; for example, statistical data. Then there's always the unanswered question who's going to publish data without economical benefit when the money is, at best, in attention/eyeballs, or selling individual queries where backend tech isn't material or even visible. Do we even want to expose more machine-readable information in the age of ChatGPT?
TBL's vision for knowledge graphs is even older than the web. But should it be W3C's job to invent new tech? Does W3C's track record, legal and financial standing invite further standardization work? Their HTML and SVG charters have basically ceased working and W3C's last (final?) HTML recommendation is based on WHATWG HTML Review Draft January, 2020 [1].
