Compaction of language maps with @value aliased not as expected

[letmaik]

{
  "@context": {
    "id": "@id",
    "type": "@type",
    "value": "@value",
    "skos": "http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#",
    "label": { "@id": "skos:prefLabel", "@container": "@language" },
    "qudt": "http://qudt.org/schema/qudt#",
    "symbol": "qudt:symbol",
    "UCUM": "http://www.opengis.net/def/uom/UCUM/"
  },
  "id": "qudt:DegreeCelsius",
  "label": {"en": "Degrees Celsius"},
  "symbol": {
    "type": "UCUM",
    "value": "Cel"
  }
}

When I compact that with the same context I get:

{
  "@context": {
    "id": "@id",
    "type": "@type",
    "value": "@value",
    "skos": "http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#",
    "label": {
      "@id": "skos:prefLabel",
      "@container": "@language"
    },
    "qudt": "http://qudt.org/schema/qudt#",
    "symbol": "qudt:symbol",
    "UCUM": "http://www.opengis.net/def/uom/UCUM/"
  },
  "id": "qudt:DegreeCelsius",
  "symbol": {
    "type": "UCUM",
    "value": "Cel"
  },
  "label": {
    "en": {
      "@language": "en",
      "value": "Degrees Celsius"
    }
  }
}

Why does the compaction algorithm care about how I aliased @value when trying to compact the language maps? Shouldn't it still go back to the original simple language map?

It should not, the result should be the same. If it isn't, it is a bug in the JSON-LD processor you are using and should file a bug for it.

You can verify it with, e.g., my processor at http://www.markus-lanthaler.com/jsonld/playground/

Interesting, thanks! It happens on the official json-ld playground at http://json-ld.org/playground/

@neothemachine you'll want to file a bug against https://github.com/digitalbazaar/jsonld.js. That's what we use for the JSON-LD Playground.
