Of course they do.  The situation is something like when one denormalizes 
some database tables.  They "ought" to be normalized, it's good practice to 
normalize them (to at least 3NF) but sometimes for performance reasons one 
doesn't.  But then it can be hard to update all the denormalized tables 
correctly.  I think it's no different with Leo.   As I said, I probably 
don't understand the ins and outs because I'm not familiar with this part 
of the code or its history.
