      here are use cases where there is no entries. Some kind of bundles do have at least one resource (documents). This is explicitly handled in the documentation

      Existing Wording: One common operation performed with resources is to gather a collection of resources into a single instance with containing context. In FHIR this is referred to as "bundling" the resources together.

      Bundle.entry cardinality = 0..*

      Proposed Wording: Bundle.entry cardinality = 1..*
