Hi Denny, 

I am concerned about the performance impact of every
wikipedia calling an API for each property that it wishes to format as
content in pages' infoboxes, as I understand is the design the project
is pursuing. Could you please explain to this community why it's
technically superior to field a client/server API rather than
transclusion, e.g., 

{{wikidata:en:infobox:Thomas Jefferson}} 

It
seems more stable a design to format the infobox on wikidata, and then
simply transclude the result. 

Thanks in advance.
John
