Suggested syntax predicate for the mapping above #20 (comment)

Field	Value
subject_id	http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/samplingProtocol
subject_value_syntax - expected_value - unit
syntax_predicate_id	skos:relatedMatch
object_id	MIXS:0000002
object_value_syntax - expected_value - unit	{text} - type name
syntax_comment	DwC expects the name of, reference to, or description (which could also include a URI, IRI, etc.), while MIxS only expects a label

[pbuttigieg]

This is interesting.

both of these terms confound methods and devices (the DwC in its examples, MIxS in its definitions). We should recommend that both standards resolve these into separate terms.

In the meantime we may be looking at a semantic exact match (based on the examples).
If the definitions are the only thing we're going on, then a DwC (methods) broadMatch MIxS (methods or devices) would be fine.

Noted this also in the comment of our SSSOM mapping matrix

Both of these terms list both, the names of (or links to) methods, or devices (either in the definition or in the examples). Taking the definition and the examples into account these could be skos:exactMatch, focusing only on the definition, skos:broadMatch would be appropriate.
