Adam Fuchs commented on ACCUMULO-482:
-------------------------------------

Having multiple structures that can represent the same data means that the user 
has to understand a more complex type system. The idea of using a minimal set 
(versus minimum) is that if you have two structs, either of which could be used 
just as effectively (as defined by other constraints) in the same methods, then 
you have too many structs.

In this particular case, if users never have to understand the concept of a 
PColumnUpdate and how it differs from a PKeyValue, then we have a simpler and 
easier to use API (assuming the cost of making that change to other factors is 
small).
