- Elements differ in definition: 'May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.' vs 'An Extension'
- Element minimum cardinalities differ: '0' vs '1'
