How to manage the intersection between a fixed version in a value set, and a fixed version of the system in the expansion profile

This code system http://hl7.org/fhir/system-version-processing-mode defines the following codes:

CodeDisplayDefinition
default Default VersionUse this version of the code system if a value set doesn't specify a version
check Check ValueSet VersionUse this version of the code system. If a value set specifies a different version, the expansion operation should fail
override Override ValueSet VersionUse this version of the code system irrespective of which version is specified by a value set. Note that this has obvious safety issues, in that it may result in a value set expansion giving a different list of codes that is both wrong and unsafe, and implementers should only use this capability reluctantly. It primarily exists to deal with situations where specifications have fallen into decay as time passes. If a version is override, the version used SHALL explicitly be represented in the expansion parameters

LvlA few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. See Code System for further information.
SourceThe source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
CodeThe code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
DisplayThe display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
