F+A03/04: strong overlap

It is unclear to me what the difference between F+A03 and F+A04 is. If an appropriate community standard is used, this should already define data structure incl types, constraints etc. In light of this, F+A04 seems to be superfluous, as long as F+A03 is updated to clarify that the use of an accepted community standard, if available, is encouraged over the definition of a new in-house standard.

I would split them in "subindicators" like F+S08, since they are related. But i would not remove F+A04, beacuse you can fulfill F+A04 without really fulfilling F+A03.
