Caveat: Do not include a large number of homographs in a large number of records

E.g., Do not make “lilac” a UF for all 28 colors to which it may correspond

Instead, make one record for “lilac” with a SN describing its vagueness: “A range of purplish blue colors ...”

and link it to potential corresponding colors with Associative Relationships

When to make separate records rather than synonyms (UF)
