Another, potentially more attractive option, is to model units in the
predicate:
:X trans:bloodPressure
[ trans:systolicMmHg "120" ;
trans:diastolicMmHg "80" ] .
This greatly simplifies our life as we are otherwise likely to have a
variety of e.g. BP data in the database: 120/80 mmHg, 12/8 DmHg,
16000/10667 Pa,
16/11 MPa, 13 (PAM)
I don't understand -- how would that simplify the problem? We would still be
using different units, and would still have to do some maths before posing
queries when one data entry uses systolicMmHg and another uses systolicPa?
