I'm sorry, I don't mean to be dismissive, but I just can't read that as anything other than "doing it correctly makes it harder."

That sentiment is not IMHO a particularly potent argument for _anything_ related to engineering.

Accuracy, not convenience, should be the goal. If you need to make consuming the data more convenient, that should be the focus.

To be clear using the word "correctly' is putting a lot more confidence behind my opinion than I ever intended, i.e. I am open to counterpoints, and do not portend to think a one size fits all policy is realistic.
