@jheeffer what do you think, what kind will be this issue: error or warning?

[jheeffer]

1. measure is an incorrect term here, indicator is the correct one. A measure is any numeric concept, also outside of datapoints (e.g. latitude of a country). An indicator is a concept which is used as the value in a datapoint. It can also be non-numeric (so not a measure, e.g. type of government of countries over the years).

2. Definitely not an error. Maybe a warning. A missing indicator can be seen as null to explicitly indicate there is not data for that datapoint, instead of leaving it out. So not sure if it's a warning even... @angieskazka your 2 cents?
