/**
 * A single value as a result from Rule Evaluation. Also contains apath-expressions of all model references that resulted in this value.
 * The apath-expressions are guaranteed to result in one element in the reference model, if evaluated.
 *
 * The result of an evaluation is ValueList instead of this, because a single path in rules can result in multiple values in an RM object.
