Hi Bert,

"I think that every leaf-node in an Archetype can be encoded in SNOMED,
don't you think?"

I'm afraid not even close, especially when you take into account the
changes in the meaning of datapoints that apply when used in differing
contexts. When doing modelling for histopathologym I was not even close to
getting 50% binding of SNOMED to archetype leaf-nodes, ands histopath is
one of the better covered parts.


A sidenote:

20C Philosophy might help here. Wittgenstein's Tractatus (1921)
was failed attempt to pin-down a logical structure on to what can be expressed. Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations (1953)
especially his language games - accounted for different contexts.
