The main motivation behind this module is to separate the concerns of rendering only the semantic content of a Web resource, and rendering a Web page. In your Web app, you write your response handler code to produce JSON-LD (or, rather, the JSON-LD internal representation), and this module embeds it into (X)HTML+RDFa.
A deeper observation, perhaps, is that like (X|HT)ML, JSON-LD is an (at least partially) ordered tree. This structure can be "borrowed" to eliminate many of the ambiguities associated with rendering RDF data. Indeed, the goal of this module is to render a consistent, isomorphic markup structure for a given JSON-LD input, and provide the ability to tune that structure enough to produce high-enough quality markup to be viewed directly for the purpose of development, as well as re-ingested and further manipulated downstream.
