      Do not partially restate the 201/204 rule from section 11.4.2.2 and shorten paragraph 3 to:

      On success, the service MUST create all entities and relate them. If the service responds with 201 Created, the response MUST be expanded to at least the level that was present in the deep-insert request.

      Paragraph 3 states that

      On success, the service MUST create all entities and relate them. If the request included a return Prefer header with a value of return=representation and is applied by the service, the response MUST be expanded to at least the level that was present in the deep-insert request.

      This raised the question whether the service has to expand the response if no "return" preference is present.

      The intention was: if something is returned, it has to be expanded.
