while trying to wrap my head around extensions:

differential contains

{
              "extension": [
                {
                  "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/structuredefinition-explicit-type-name",
                  "valueString": "SourceElement"
                }
              "path": "ConceptMap.element",

              ],

What effect does this extension have on ConceptMap.element? How is that element affected by this extension being added?

Looks like it is a name suggestion for the class that is generated for the BackboneElement

Where are you seeing this? That doesn't look like valid JSON at all . . .

Grahame Grieve (Oct 14 2016 at 19:20):

there's no relationship between StructureDefinition.differential.element and ConceptMap.element. And yes, this is a type name suggestion for code generators

@Lloyd McKenzie sorry for making it confusing. I just copied a few lines from the profiles-resources.json file.
@Grahame Grieve thanks for confirming
