Clarification
Comment:
When modeling groups of related observations in FHIR, there appears to be several ways to achieve this: (1) Relating an observation with another through the use of Observation.hasMember to form what is called an 'observation group', (2) Relating an observation to another through the use of Observation.component (even if not really a full observation), (3) grouping a set of observations as the 'results' of a DiagnosticReport. It is not clear when one approach is favored over another. I would recommend reducing the degrees of freedom or being more explicit about the guidance on the approach. The former is preferred over the latter.
