So am I to assume that since we can make an extra call to another site to get meta that site node in stats has been deemed redundant data.
If so, I have to suggest a reality break. This is one of several instances where the over aggressive conservation of a few bytes of bandwidth adds workload and complexity to consuming systems.
I realize we are in beta and changes are to be expected but please keep in mind the amount of time and effort the unpaid developers who are, as I have mentioned before, driving exposure to your brand.
Can we get just a little more love paid to the old school notion of adding to an interface wont break implementations, deleting from an interface breaks everything.
