<p>
When a resource is returned that conforms to two or more profiles that are not within the same profile hierarchy
(i.e. the resource conforms to a set of profiles, but some of these are independent, not being specialised profiles of others in the set), the server SHOULD indicate indicate conformance to each independent profile.

A service MAY implement multiple <a>functional profile</a>s, including HTTP, QSA and possibly other approaches.
In such cases a client may specify conflicting choices via different mechanisms, for example the common case of client sending default headers but asking for a specific representation.

The order of precedence is QSA over HTTP.
This is on the basis that the more precisely a URI points to a resource,
the more likely it is that the agent intends to request that precise resource
irrespective of which HTTP headers are sent with that request.
