Sorry - the reason is that O2% is also described as FIO2 which is directly
mathematically equivalent.

FiO₂
Proportion
Optional

Fraction of oxygen in inspired air.
Comment: For example: '0.28'.

Unitary

Numerator: 0.0..1.0
Percent O₂
Proportion
Optional
Percentage of oxygen in inspired air.
Comment: For example: '24 %'

Percent

Numerator: 0.0..100.0
