In BASE2 these are maybe all BioMaterial items with a seperate subtype flag, and thus will be ok. Other examples might be of more general character, with an annotation type for pointing to a general resource like a pubmed record, URL, etc, that could easily be valid for more than one BASE item. How likely these would be MIAME required for some and not for others are more questionable.
