We then add an extension skos:relatedSymmetric (as a sub-prop of skos:related) to be used in the case where related IS considered to be symmetric. *Doug, Ceri: > 5.

So then users have the option to use either the hierarchical or associative style properties to express the partitive relation, depending on preference.
