Perhaps the definition of 'disease phenotype' should be changed to:
"A clinically abnormal phenotype that is characteristic of one or more diseases."
This definition assumes that multiple diseases can have a phenotype in common
and should alleviate some of Alan Ruttenberg's concerns about counting diseases.
In response to the last question, as the classes are currently defined, the
difference between 'manifestation of a disease' and 'disease phenotype' is that
the first is a quality of a bearer of a disease whereas the second is a quality
of a disease.
