I see that https://www.hl7.org/fhir/questionnaireresponse-definitions.html#QuestionnaireResponse.questionnaire recommends QuestionnaireResponsethat reference a questionnaire must preserve the exact same structure

> If a QuestionnaireResponse references a Questionnaire, then the QuestionnaireResponse structure must be consistent with the Questionnaire (i.e. questions must be organized into the same groups, nested questions must still be nested, etc.).

Is this absolute? Can't the renderer derive structure from the questionnaire referenced?

do you mean rendering or the structure of QR ?

It's absolute - and the short answer is "depends on the questionnaire" (which is why it's absolute - because it's needed some of the time, it keeps complexity down if it's just done all the time).
