Are these codes unique? Are the concepts they identify unique? It looks like both definition and expansion support multiple designations for different uses, but there was talk of allowing redundant value inclusions, which I think would be bad. I.e., does

      Add note that about best practice, next to 4.8.6 that it's best practice to have well differentiated concepts, but that many value sets do not because of real world constraints. Also note about this in expansion, that the same code/system combination may appear more than once in a heirarchical expansion, but not in a flat expansion.
