This is a good solution.
We had many examples of multiple instantiation in BM, esp of Events.

E.g. often an Acquisition is also Transfer of Custody, Part Addition (to the 
new collection), Part Removal (from the old collection), maybe even Move.

But I don’t think that's a criterion on whether something is a Linguistic 
Object!
If it was, every unilingual book without translation would NOT be a Linguistic 
Object.

The criterion is the scope note: Linguistic Object "identifiable expressions in 
*natural language* or languages".
Let's consider the clases given by Dan, taking into account the class hierarchy
http://personal.sirma.bg/vladimir/crm-graphical/#cidoc_class_hierarchy 

- E49_Time_Appellation: is not, eg "20140919" is not in natural language. This 
comes from its E50_Date subclass
- E48_Place_Name: I think it is!!
  Martin or Steve, can you give some examples of Place Names in *unnatural 
language*?
  The class name includes "Name", which suggests it is in *natural language*.
  The scope note "particular and common forms of E44 Place Appellation" is not 
helpful in making the distinction.
  Certainly its superclass E44 Place Appellation is not Linguistic Object, 
since it includes Coordinates etc
- E75_Conceptual_Object_Appellation: "specific identifiers of intellectual 
products or standardized patterns."
  The examples are not linguistic: ISBN 3-7913-1418-1, ISO2788-1986 (E)

> e.g. "Querelle des Bouffons" 

Dan, you should use E35_Title since P102 has title applies to E70_Thing, 
therefore also applies to E28_Conceptual_Object.

But I fail to see the utility of E75_Conceptual_Object_Appellation:
- for "specific identifiers" use E42 Indentifier
- for names use E35_Title
