Not sure why so many people are hung up on the 4 part location convention.  
Legacy isn’t!  Legacy offers a 9 part location.   You can include anything 
you’d like from 0-9 parts.  Legacy doesn’t care.  If you want to be able to 
sort, then you do need to have some sort of consistency with your locations.

Legacy doesn’t have anything that I know of that DEPENDS on the 4 part 
location.   It is however the standard way for genealogists to enter locations 
in the US and thus is the general way locations are discussed and typically how 
they are shown in examples.

Hopefully, Legacy did not ADD any new features that also DEPEND on this 4-part 
location convention.  You would think they would NOT, because there are so many 
reasons why so many of us don't use it--even within the US.  ?
