Hyper-schema defines an "instances" relation for indicating the collection related to an individual resource, while IANA has a registered "collection" relation for what seems to me to be the same purpose.

Is there a reason that we're not just going with "collection"?

I understand the difference between JSON Schema's "full" and the IANA-registered "item" (and I'm surprised "full" isn't also registered), but "collection" and "instances" appear to do the same thing, and I find "collection" more intuitive.

I don't know why I opened this as a separate issue. Closing in favor of #47 .
