I agree totally. Legacy Events serve the role of both Facts and
Events. If people don't like the dates, create an event type without
Dates, and call it "Fact" as someone else suggested. For me, just
leaving the date field blank is good enough.

Adding another type of entity called a Fact (distinct from Event)
would just confuse matters further, I'd suggest. Maybe there could be
some terminology clarification to ease the transition for users of
other programs, however.

Cheers,
Rob
