This should improve interoperability by simplifying the types of data
that clients need to support for each property.
Would making a property optional be sufficient to indicate missing data?
I hope so. Encode what you have. Less filler, more beef (fish for Simon).
At the moment there is a rich (perhaps even baroque) selection of
missing/withheld/... term values.
Kind regards,
