Hi, I would strongly recommend against having multiple targets of "term bindings", at least for the use case presented here. Multiple targets should not be allowed unless the targets can be securely assumed to have identical meaning. Binding nodes in the archetype to external terminologies through the "term binding" mechanism has, possibly among other things, the purpose of fixing/stabilizing the meaning of the node by reference to some external source. I realize this is not easy, but guidelines should be developed for selecting targets of term bindings, e.g. like what is currently (kind-of) happening in CIMI, to minimize variability and maximize reproducibility across archetypes and archetype usage.
