This. I can say that maybe it would have been a better choice to go without Ember Data but since we started there is simply too much work to redo a lot of stuff instead of just continuing in the same path. We didn't know ember had these conventions when we started working with it since it doesn't really advertise it and the problem first arises when you're trying to do something that feels easy but gets complicated due to Embers convention.
