okey then… Haha, no, but how silly does that sound, right?
Parenting, like skinning, can be used as an abstraction. As the result taking a lot of data and turning it into less data. In that way, we can start thinking about things at a higher level, such as where to put the clavicle joint, as opposed to worrying about whether vertex[203] is moving correctly in relation to vertex[204] when you are actually sitting there animating. You instead worry about whether the upper arm can bend in this direction. You think anatomy, not math. In the same way can you create hierarchies of joints, and hierarchies of arbitrary groups per-joint, and arbitrary relationships, constraints, in between groups, so as to provide a higher-level interface to otherwise raw data. Facilitating not just the animator during animation, but facilitating change and improvements, without breaking existing animation.
