My understanding is that if I reference a QuestionnaireResponse from an Observation that I should not reference that Observation from the referenced QuestionnaireResponse. Is that correct or may I have two-way references?

2-way references are to be avoided. You can always use _revinclude or _has to navigate the other way when querying. Bidirectional references mean there's a risk of inconsistency and problems manipulating only one resource at a time (and with REST, we want to be able to manipulate resources independently)
