We'll return to our Association link mapping later. At this point, we enter
a new Top Node Reference element to define the mapping for our moment
interval archetype. Complete the mapping for this node according to Table 4-37.
We'll use this as the basis for all archetype mappings and use the Referenced
Child property to avoid unnecessary duplication. This enables us to point to
another node mapping that is already defined, rather than create another fully
defined node mapping.
