Issue Proposal
Use of sct-descId for mapping and READ codes. The extension is only for showing a non-preferred term within SCT, linking it with the preferred term. If using other codes systems and mapping to SCT then both would go in seperate .coding elements, with userSelected chosen to represent the original. Remove the word 'SHALL' in the guidance.

Remove the extension from this example as not part of explanation and can cause confusion. Guidance here
