      As noted by Lloyd, the reference already exists on OrganizationAffiliation to establish the linkage.

      Additionally the set of Affiliations may have privacy implications when sharing the Organization that might need filtering, where the existing design does not have this issue.

      Comment:

      OrganizationAffiliation resource needs to be a reference element in the Organization resource, for it to be useful. In its current state, retrieving an Organization resource gives no indication that it has affiliations at all. A user would need to know to search against the OrganizationAffiliation endpoint.

      Summary:

      Organization.affiliation needs to be a reference to OrganizationAffiliation for the latter to be useful.
