Ref: https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/davinci-pdex-plan-net/StructureDefinition-plannet-Endpoint.html. or any other IG build recently that I've checked.

The snapshot view seems to have the 'I' flag (= invariant?) next to every field.

according to the tooltips they all have the ele-1 Invariant: "All FHIR elements must have a @value or children"
https://www.hl7.org/fhir/element.html#definition
which seems valid in a very technical sense

My 2 cents: Might as well retire the flag if it is universal. Just adds visual noise.
