Could I do a quick ask about the recent data model discussion here:

Design Improvements: the Hierarchical Data Model vs the Graph-like UX

How is it that Locations are not Records? More specifically, how is it that Locations are not Records of kind/type: Asset? The UI in a Farmier instance says “Locations represent places of interest. They are assets”. Under the menu item “Assets”, Location(s) is not in the list. (I think this sort of cognitive load/dissonance can be improved, and new users could understand the system much more quickly.) Thanks! Matt

I think a quick live demo with real-time voice would be good for discussion.
Thanks!

Matt
