Your second sentence doesn't wholly align with your first. Exclusively storing any data set in a single location is a bad idea, yes. But that's not an argument

Your second sentence doesn't wholly align with your first.
Exclusively storing any data set in a single location is a bad idea, yes. But that's not an argument against a centralised register of all land ownership. My property is registered with the Land Registry but I keep a copy of the documents and my solicitor keeps the same in their files.
- hyko 8y agoYou’re right, that was an illogical argument. However, it’s important to recognise that the Land Registry as it exists isn’t just a public copy of the data (useful for research, public policy etc.) - it’s the single source of truth about land ownership. Once your land is registered, ownership disputes operate differently, whether you’re holding the deeds or not. And I am not a lawyer btw so take all this with a pinch of salt :)
