currently we have the data-type Count on Allelic read depth and Genomic structural variant copy number this datatype is a profile on Quantity which can be simplified for both usages to unsigned integer. This would simplify the instances of variant as integer is a primitive data type

Count = 6 lines per FHIR Instance, unsignedInt = 1 line

just revisited, not possible due to restriction on value in Observation.value[x] core spec.

Could take it up with O&O to see if they would want to expand the allowed types

This feels like something that can wait - I like thinking about "lines per instance" to make sure we are efficient, but I think right now this is a case of premature optimization.
