This only has an effect when a model is used, and disables searching and statement reordering for pretty printing.
Statements will be written in simple sorted order, which is faster, but may result in less readable output in Turtle or TriG.

+.Sh VALIDATION
+.Bl -tag -compact -width 3n
+.It Va allValuesFrom
+Checks that all properties with owl:allValuesFrom restrictions have valid value types.
+.It Va cardinalityEqual
+Checks that any instance of a class with a owl:cardinality property restriction has exactly that many values of that property.
+.It Va cardinalityMax
+Checks that any instance of a class with a owl:maxCardinality property restriction has no more than that many values of that property.
+.It Va cardinalityMin
+Checks that any instance of a class with a owl:minCardinality property restriction has at least that many values of that property.
+.It Va classLabel
+Checks that every rdfs:Class has an rdfs:label.
+.It Va classType
+Checks that the value of every rdf:type property is defined as an rdfs:Class.
+.It Va datatypeProperty
+Checks that datatype properties have literal (not instance) values.
+.It Va datatypeType
+Checks that every datatype is defined as a rdfs:Datatype.
+.It Va deprecatedClass
+Checks that there are no instances of deprecated classes.
+.It Va deprecatedProperty
+Checks that there are no uses of deprecated properties.
+.It Va functionalProperty
+Checks that no instance has several values of a functional property.
+.It Va instanceLiteral
+Checks that there are no instances where a literal is expected.
+.It Va instanceType
+Checks that every instance with an explicit type matches that type.
+This is a broad check that triggers other type-related checks, but mainly it will check that every instance of a class conforms to any restrictions on that class.
+.It Va inverseFunctionalProperty
+Checks that at most one instance has a given value of an inverse functional property.
+.It Va literalInstance
+Checks that there are no literals where an instance is expected.
+.It Va literalMaxExclusive
+Checks that literal values are not greater than or equal to any applicable xsd:maxExclusive datatype restrictions.
+.It Va literalMaxInclusive
+Checks that literal values are not greater than any applicable xsd:maxInclusive datatype restrictions.
+.It Va literalMinExclusive
+Checks that literal values are not less than or equal to any applicable xsd:minExclusive datatype restrictions.
+.It Va literalMinInclusive
+Checks that literal values are not less than any applicable xsd:minInclusive datatype restrictions.
+.It Va literalPattern
+Checks that literals with xsd:pattern restrictions match the regular expression pattern for their datatype.
+.It Va literalRestriction
+Checks that literals with supported restrictions conform to those restrictions.
+This is a high-level check that triggers the more specific individual literal restriction checks.
+.It Va literalValue
+Checks that literals with supported XSD datatypes are valid.
+The set of supported types is the same as when writing canonical forms.
+.It Va objectProperty
+Checks that object properties have instance (not literal) values.
+.It Va plainLiteralDatatype
+Checks that there are no typed literals where a plain literal is expected.
+A plain literal may have an optional language tag, but not a datatype.
+.It Va predicateType
+Checks that every predicate is defined as an rdf:Property.
+.It Va propertyDomain
+Checks that any instance with a property with an rdfs:domain is in that domain.
+.It Va propertyLabel
+Checks that every rdf:Property has an rdfs:label.
+.It Va propertyRange
+Checks that the value for any property with an rdfs:range is in that range.
+.It Va someValuesFrom
+Checks that instances of classes with owl:someValuesFrom property restrictions have at least one matching property value.
+.It Va subclassCycle
+Checks that no class is a sub-class of itself, recursively.
+This ensures that the graph is acyclic with respect to rdfs:subClassOf.
+.It Va subpropertyCycle
+Checks that no property is a sub-property of itself, recursively.
+This ensures that the graph is acyclic with respect to rdfs:subPropertyOf.
