It's not correct to say that HIER_OBJECT_ID can represent anything. It can represent ids that are made of a UID root (either a UUID or OID or domain name or reverse domain name) and a String extension. While the String part could be abused, it isn't in properly built software. As can be seen in the model <http://www.openehr.org/releases/trunk/UML/#Diagrams___18_1_83e026d_1433773265358_317377_9216>, there quite a few other identifier types as well.
UID can also be INTERNET_ID, and the "extension" and double colon are not required, so the HIER_OBJECT_ID cannot represent anything, but it is a lot. Of course it is a matter of taste, maybe there are good arguments to make the archetype.uid available for so many ID-types.
You are right about the error you mention however, we need to fix the documentation for that.
Thanks, that helps me. Bert
