Looking at https://www.hl7.org/fhir/bmi.profile.xml.html - shouldn't the BMICode slice set min to 1 if that particular code is compulsory?

also is it necessary to specify type on elements with fixed values?

"also is it necessary to specify type on elements with fixed values?" Yes:

eld-6: Fixed value may only be specified if there is one type (expression : fixed.empty() or (type.count() <= 1), xpath: not(exists(f:*[starts-with(local-name(.), 'fixed')])) or (count(f:type)<=1))

RE "shouldn't the BMICode slice set min to 1 if that particular code is compulsory? "

Yes it should can you make a tracker to fix all the slices in the vitals?

that says <= 1, not =1 though

so it does. changed in STU3. I have been conditioned since I always got a tooling error if type was missing for fixed values.

And you still will - I don't think that's changed, though it's somewhat annoying
