## Limits

- This ontology does not cover resorts outside the 'Vacation Destination' definition (e.g., residential resorts, medical resorts).
- It does not include detailed information on specific resort amenities beyond what is mentioned in search results.
- It lacks explicit knowledge layer nodes (heuristics, conventions, pitfalls, etc.) as per the current task scope.
- The geographic scope is primarily US-centric, with some Caribbean and Mexico destinations appearing due to all-inclusive resort searches.
- 2 nodes, because the model could not provide supporting search queries, actual collected queries (including related searches and PAA) overlapping with the labels were found by rule and attached as evidence. The evidence for these nodes is only accepted up to 'derivation'.
