ogms:pain vs emotion ontology:feeling of pain #173

The lexical definitions for pain in ogms and feeling of pain in the emotion ontology are the same. I surmise they were both taken from the same source. However, I think the emotion ontology's feeling of pain more closely matches the definition. For example, each definition mentions bodily process. In ogms, pain is not a child of bodily process, but in the emotion ontology it is.

Also, there is the issue that in ogms pain is kind of symptom, and a symptom (by definition) is defined as being "clinically relevant". This seems off to me. I'm not exactly sure what it means for something to be "clinically relevant", but I'm pretty sure that not all experiences of pain fall are such.
