If a diameter is reference () on the drawing, does that make the GD&T under the diameter callout reference as well?

 

To answer this question, Jason walks through the above example assembly drawing to explain the scenario where a feature being controlled by position must have a reference size dimension rather than a tolerance on the size of the feature.
