Ian, it's not only CLUSTER archetypes that can appear within the state of an 
OBSERVATION archetype:

* An ELEMENT archetype can similarly be slotted into the OBSERVATION.state.

* We should also allow it in EVENT.state. (That's the "Person State" check box 
that you see in the Archetype Editor when working on an OBSERVATION.)

* The Person State can be defined by an embedded archetype of type ITEM_SINGLE, 
ITEM_LIST, ITEM_TREE or ITEM_TABLE.


So if the idea is that assumed value should be used only to describe state, 
then I think that the complete list of places where it would be needed is in:

* OBSERVATION.state
* EVENT.state
* CLUSTER archetypes
* ELEMENT archetypes
* ITEM_SINGLE archetypes
* ITEM_LIST archetypes
* ITEM_TREE archetypes
* ITEM_TABLE archetypes
