Thank you for advancing the conversation. Concrete, illustrative examples can help focus the discussion. And you've shown how to do it if the concepts are equivalent or thought so. In your examples things are a bit simple and would be a bit more difficult, I think, with ontologies that were generated without considering what had been done in a domain. So for example equating/equivalence between A and B ontologies seems directly possible, but if one of them was a bit more precise and detailed and said that PLACE hasA LOCATION then we might not equate PLACE in A with LOCATION in B.
We'd know more about what is meant by the 2 concepts if we looked at the data instances they represent and found that in A we have place locations like Grand Canyon and in B they are lat-lon.
