Ensure labels are not more general than their definition (e.g. 'ligament') #8

ligament is defined as 'The portion of tissue which suspends the heart elastically.'

I recommend ensuring labels are not context-specific. In the context of OARCS, this is clearly a heart ligament (always primary heart?)

However, the term 'ligament' may be used in other arthropod ontologies to refer to non-circulatory structures. For example, the alary muscle of drosophila, or the wing hinges of locusts
