Can Products with Linear placement be IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure

[eihov]

Problem
The current documentation on Product Linear Placement mentions:

Therefore, similarly to how IfcSpatialElement.ObjectPlacement sets the context for all contained elements, the IfcLinearPositioningElement.ObjectPlacement sets the context for all elements positioned on it. Consequently, each product placement that uses Product Linear Placement references the IfcObjectPlacement of the IfcLinearPositioningElement through IfcLinearPlacement.PlacementRelTo.

Taken from:
https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/concepts/Product_Shape/Product_Placement/Product_Linear_Placement/content.html

The question is then, should we allow Products with a Linear Placement to be contained in spatial structure, even if the documentation says that the ObjectPlacement of IfcSpatialElement sets the context for all contained elements? This means Linear Placement would override the context of the IfcSpatialElement.

• No need

Proposal
Update documentation so that it clearly states that Linear Placement overrides the spatial placement context, or something similar.

Reason for overriding: Using Linear Placement doesn't affect more than it needs to.
