    for this example, we use a real URI, since this example does have a canonical address
    at which it's posted. Alternatively, We could have used an OID, or a UUID.

   to LOINC, and 
    it has it's own identifier. This is the identifier for this set of codes, and that doesn't
   
    change the codes.

    if we didn't specify the version of LOINC on the include, then
    we could specify it implicitly by specifying the locked date for the value set
    
    So we show this example here, but it's not actually necessary since we also 
    have LOINC version. Note: if you do what this example does, and specify both,
    you better get it right, and specify the current version of LOINC at the time

          You have to be very careful doing this; it's all too 
          easy to specify a different or lesser meaning, and then
          people use codes wrongly ()with obvious consequences for clinical safety)
        
          You're allowed to do this in a value set for 2 reasons:
            - people do it anyway
            - it does make sense to remove common text that's fixed in the context
            
          In this case, that's what we're doing here - removing
          'serum/plasma' from the names, since that's specified in the
          value set name     -->
