Following up on this from the Growth perspective...

My main question is what the rationale is. Is it to improve query
performance on analytics dbs?

I do know there are many older schemas for Growth-related experiments that
are only really useful for historical analysis, which is kind of hard to
reconstruct anyway. If there are sound technical reasons to chuck stuff
from the relational dbs and retain it only in the raw JSON logs, then I'm
potentially okay with helping figure out a list of schemas to retain and
schemas to purge. Aaron, thoughts?
