Hi Colin, Thanks for your response. I totally agree with you. Do you or anyone else have experience with these kind of data content migrations going bad? Basically, the only argument I can provide the team is that it "smells" bad, the intent of migrations seem to be for data structure, not content (other than reference data or an initial admin user), and all migration documentation/examples only show DDL type statements.
Thanks.
