What is the URI for the root HL7 OID - 2.16.840.1.113883
Simplifier returns no result, as well as google search on build.fhir.org site.

Why would you want one? The root HL7 OID is for issuing descendant OIDs. That's not really a thing in the URL space...

For the NamingSystem.type to indicate that the translated OID is Type 4 as per OIDs FAQ.
The http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/identifier-type that NamingSystem.type is referring to does not cover all possible values.

You would never put 2.16.840.1.113883 in a NamingSystem. It's not an OID for an identifier or code system namespace. I.e. it's not a "system". It's an organization identifier. It would show up as the value of an Organization.identifier for the HL7 organization.
