Some may use it to describe the complete phenotype of an organism (analogous to genotype)

Our model is also:

Condition
- Disease
- Phenotype

Which does not necessarily conform to others models or terminologies (e.g. OMIM)

Consider renaming Phenotype to PhenotypicFeature (but this would be disruptive, I would vote -1)
