The problem you're describing is mostly attributable to property graph stores, and doesn't apply to named graph engines.

This is the essential difference between neo4j (a property graph engine) and most RDF stores which support quads (i.e. <subject> <predicate> <object> <context>)

Aren’t RDF stores synonymous with triple stores?

RDF is the serialization format for triples. The triple store is the database that stores triples.
