Summary
Complex Extension: Asserts that an element within a resource in an implementation guide (such as a Bundle entry, or a contained resource) is valid against a particular profile, without needing a profile on the root resource that enforces the profiles of its parts, or a meta.profile in the instance. This allows tooling to test the validity of the parts of an example.
