Usage Advice
Use when
- Use on an

Avoid when
- Avoid naming more than one target (it is functional) and avoid swapping it with
gmeow:derivationSource— the target is the descendant, the source the ancestor.
How to use
- Assert
gmeow:derivationTargetonce from the relator to its descendant (required by the someValuesFrom axiom); it specializesgmeow:observedFeaturefor generic observation queries.
