I'm not expert on OpenGraph, and it's been a while I've actually manipulated RDF other than the automatically generated og meta tags.

I'd say defining this as linked data was quite idiomatic / elegant. It's possibly mainly because OpenGraph was inspired of Dublin Core [1], which was RDF-based. They didn't reinvent everything with OpenGraph, but kept the spirit, I suppose.

In the end it's probably quite equivalent.

And in this end, why not both? Apparently we defined an RDF ontology for JSON schemas! [2]
