Topic: References to included answer value sets

I am looking at how to include ValueSets in Questionnaire.contained for use in answerValueSet fields (for R4). The type of answerValueSet is canonical(ValueSet). I had assumed that to mean that this field can only contain a canonical URL. But the two provided examples with contained value sets (this and this) use the standard way of referencing contained resources, i.e. #[id]. Indeed, the included ValueSet resources do not have the url field set. The Java validator seems to accept contained answer value sets referenced with a local (#x) ID, even if they also have canonical URLs. So I am wondering what the right way of referencing is, in particular for the case, where the value set to be included does have a canonical URL.

Ah right, thank you! - I was reading that section but somehow skipped exactly the crucial part :face_palm:
