How are date-based redirects more "fundamental" for locating the data they 
point to than mapfiles or splitfile are to their data?  How do we determine 
what deserves to be in key syntax and what goes in control documents?

Encryption keys, public keys, and document names have to be in keys, because 
it is impossible to remove them from the keys and still have a functional and 
secure system.  The same goes for the document name part of a mapfile.  If it 
were possible to remove any of these and have it still work, I'd probably be 
all for it.

Putting baseline and increment into a key does not make anything possible that 
was not possible before... What's the advantage?
