Score - scoreType. Should this be traitLabel similar to weigh? #17

That would be more consistent with the weight record.

There may also be values missing from the enumeration, in the case of a processor fat score for instance.

That's a good question and I'm keen we discuss at the meeting.

A trait label is appropriate where a country or a recording service might have a unique name or identifier for a specific instance of an observation, but the underlying observation itself is the same. For instance, a birth weight or a mating weight is still a weight.

However, the scores are different types of assessment. In contrast, a condition score at mating or a condition score at weaning are still condition scores, so a trait label could be handy there.

At the meeting we concluded that:

Therefore we should also add traitLabel to all score events.
