Not a one-to-one-relationship

It’s incorrect to state that belongs_to “Specifies a one-to-one association with another class”.

If the inverse association is has_one then the model specifying belongs_to is the LHS of a zero/one-to-one relationship.

If the inverse association is has_many then the model specifying belongs_to is the LHS of a zero/many-to-one relationship.

Unless you know what the inverse association is, all you can assume is that instances of a class specifying a belongs_to association can be related to at most a single instance of the other class.
