xBRL intends that the pureItemType only be used as a unit for a ratio of two quantities with the same unit. In places, I think pureItemType is used when the value is a count or a number of items. I recommend creating a 'countItemType' for these uses.

xBRL best practices regarding units here.

Can be avoided by use of the xbrli:integerItemType so no new 'countItemType' is needed.
