Add to scope note tha A single GeoSegment also a GeoRoute. If it's not now, then probably it should be a subclass.

I agree that GeoSegment is a subclass of GeoRoute with two members, but we are using two different mechanisms to define them. In the case of GeoSegment, we are using comesFrom/goesToPlace, whereas we are using the ordered collection mechanism for GeoRoutes. They don't need to be mutually exclusive, but the way they are currently defined they don't harmonize well. This is considered in issue #1165.

seems to me the definition should possibly change to something like "An ordered set of GeoSegments..." |
I think the definition is fine as it is. It may be the case that as a consequence, it is also "An ordered set of GeoSegments...". If so, it could be added as a scope note, if we think it would be helpful. |
closes #1134
