That proof is genuinely trivial, with no substantive bearing on the
arguments being made. That is possible does not mean that it is either

QNames have a different community of practice than URIs, and mere
formalisms do not and likely cannot reflect that.

Simon St.Laurent - SSL is my TLA
http://simonstl.com may be my URI
http://monasticxml.org may be my ascetic URI
urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.6320 is another possibility altogether
