Topic: Can you Reference a Bundle within a Resource?

I am hoping this is the easiest question asked this month. It appears Resources when they allow a Reference(Any) that the Any click goes back to all Resources including Bundle which to me indicates a Resource can reference a Bundle but I have never seen it and am wondering can you do this? Are there drawbacks to doing this? From what I have read, documentation doesn't say you can't.

Yes, you can do this. And sometimes it's even sensible. E.g. passing a FHIR document as a "supportingInfo" reference.

I have a few guides where the payload is an Bundle of Bundles

We have multiple documents uploaded as a set, with another resource that acts as an index to them. So that is a transction Bundle of document Bundles.
