Because some of us have to use (legacy) databases defined by others who
do not necessarily agree with your concept of PK's not having any business
meaning.
Besides which, I am not sure I agree with pk fields having no business
meaning..
many of our tables have pk fields which are our department or devision
number -
these obviously have business meaning, and are a necessary part of the pks!
