Bundle members and their LOINC sources:

  axis_fields.bin / axis_index.npz    63416 codes: LOINC_NUM, COMPONENT, PROPERTY, SCALE_TYP,
                                      SYSTEM, METHOD_TYP, LONG_COMMON_NAME, TIME_ASPCT, CLASS, each
                                      copied unchanged, plus two folded copies for lookup.
  corpus_names.bin / corpus_names.npz LONG_COMMON_NAME per code, same row order.
  alias_keys.bin / alias_index.npz    692577 folded designations -> codes, from COMPONENT,
                                      SHORTNAME, LONG_COMMON_NAME, RELATEDNAMES2, DisplayName and
                                      CONSUMER_NAME, and from these linguistic variants:
                                      arJO32, csCZ33, deAT24, deDE15, elGR17, esAR7, esES12, esMX28, etEE10, frBE23, frCA8, frFR18, itIT16, koKR13, nlNL22, plPL29, ptBR11, ruRU20, trTR19, ukUA30, zhCN5.
  loinc_rank_bonus.npy                a tie-breaker per row from COMMON_TEST_RANK.
  loinc_skip.txt                      36321 ACTIVE codes the cut leaves out (see below).
  loinc_units.tsv                     EXAMPLE_UCUM_UNITS per code.

The cut (translate_build/loinc_cut.py): STATUS ACTIVE; CLASSTYPE laboratory or
clinical; CLASS families that never hold a reading dropped (surveys, documents,
radiology, administrative, ...); SCALE_TYP Doc, Nar, -, Set and Multi dropped;
H&P classes kept only at Qn or Ord; panels kept for the laboratory subclasses;
the device base table and the catalogue whitelisted; rows carrying
EXTERNAL_COPYRIGHT_NOTICE dropped rather than reproduced. Counts by reason:
  class 20577, classtype 12437, hp-scale 523, licence 153, panel 716, scale 1915, status 12668, whitelist 1

Rows are dropped, never edited; every value here is a LOINC value. The input
spellings under res/aliases_src/ and res/resolver_overrides.tsv are this
project's own and are not LOINC names.
