Description
We have a functional model https://zibs.nl/wiki/HearingFunction-v3.1(2017EN) and https://zibs.nl/wiki/VisualFunction-v3.1(2017EN).
Both of these functional models warrant the use of a DeviceUseStatement for things like glasses/contacts/hearing aids. Both of these functional models also specify being able to say "Does not use aid".
This last thing is not really possible with DeviceUseStatement so we woud appreciate if that was added. The suggested solution could be to add a new DeviceUseStatement.status "not-applicable" or something similar.
