Correct.

"bund" is the taxonomy name I've given to a custom taxonomy used only
in this dataset, maybe this is bad modelling and it should be
"institutional" or "bmf" or something else. Its a taxonomy, however.

Not compulsory - it just happens when something does not have a
taxonomy set - such as existing entity definitions. If all your
compound dimensions had taxonomy names, this would not occur.
