`rdf:type` Showing as Edge Connection in RDF Schema Explorer

[kmcginnes]

Problem

In the RDF Schema Explorer, rdf:type is appearing as an edge connection between nodes. The rdf:type predicate defines class membership and is already represented by the node types themselves. Displaying it as an edge adds visual noise and redundant information to the schema graph.

Investigation

• Determine where rdf:type triples are being included in the schema edge list.
• Check whether the schema sync or connector logic filters out rdf:type predicates, or if it treats all predicates uniformly as edges.
• Identify the appropriate place to exclude rdf:type from edge connections in the schema view.

Expected Behavior

rdf:type should not appear as an edge connection in the schema graph. Class membership is already conveyed by the node types.

[kmcginnes]

In this case the RDF class http://www.example.com/soccer/ontology/Team itself has an associated type of https://schema.org/SportsTeam. So it is appropriate to show an edge connection between them.
