sdf-10errorStructureDefinition.snapshot.elementprovide either a binding reference or a description (or both)
: binding.empty() or binding.valueSet.exists() or binding.description.exists()
binding is required
sdf-11errorStructureDefinitionIf there's a type, its content must match the path name in the first element of a snapshot
: kind != 'logical' implies snapshot.empty() or snapshot.element.first().path = type
Ensure that the type is not inconsistent with the other information in the structure
sdf-14errorStructureDefinitionAll element definitions must have an id

sdf-8aerrorStructureDefinition.differentialIn any differential, all the elements must start with the StructureDefinition's specified type for non-logical models, or with the same type name for logical models

Because these 3 fields seem to be have overlapping meaning with the ones in the root of StructureDefinition
sdf-18errorStructureDefinitionContext Invariants can only be used for extensions
: contextInvariant.exists() implies type = 'Extension'
