In all the position descriptions I could find, as well as the various discussions on the two types of position (wikipedia, etc), 'music director' is distinct from 'conductor' in terms of significant additional responsibilities. Hence the Music Director's 'The position (and any attribute used) should be documented; it must not be assumed.' and 'Conductor Position Relationship Type should be used in addition to this relationship type.' - a music director is (normally) a conductor, but a conductor is only sometimes a music director.
