It's not clear to me what the validator should do with output from validating referred resources. In generally, the validator is going to accumulate a lot of errors if it is testing profiles, since errors mean this resource isn't one of the ones that conform to this profile. Which could be 10000s of errors in a bundle, all of which are perfectly expected and of no interest to anyone. I don't think the validator knows how to know whether they are of interest or not

What is the context? Was there a bug report? What does "this iresource isn't one of the ones that conform to this profile mean"? A referenced resource must conform to the targetProfile in the reference right? And if there's no target profile, it's checked against the core profile? Why would 10000 errors be expected in this case? I think I miss some background information....

If there are multiple candidate profiles, you check against each and only report issues if none of the profiles match

a repeating element sliced by profiles, for example

If you're slicing by profiles, you wouldn't report errors for the non-matched profiles unless none of them matched.
