You said you "studied" the use cases and that your original design was best. We still have no evidence that any studying has taken place. Please post the studies so that they can be understood. The route you chose makes a permanent design decision. Once done, it can not be undone. If it goes through as is, the best case at that point would be to start over. I am not going to argue with hand-waving summations or the "multiple error handlers" straw man. Garrett
