+1 to deprecate +1 to external toolset and reporting
Potentially +1 for the Arelle solution- seems perfect —- Origin of the Mix XBRL was my initial work on outreach to World Bank CGAP (when Mix market was part of that) with the concept being that Microfinance Institutions needed a way to prove their Financial bono fides. Thus I think that the important point here is that the reporting infrastructure needs to have sufficient fidelity and transparency. Ratio calculations are important to be defined within the project as long as they tie to outside standards.
