Initially raised at https://www.w3.org/2017/07/11-hcls-minutes.html#item02 [[ harold: [ . . . ] Two approaches used to ont. HL7 itself has a mess of tiny ont. A lot of tooling around HL7 has taken a different approach, with one gigantic ont with the leaves being individual codes. ... The UMLS and the ___ has done with HL7v3 has one code system -- top level node. I don't think we want to do that, but it's a question. ]]

Decided to leave it as one big ont.
