ok, i kind of understand that, but it is still very different than a metric. metrics become problematic because they are reductive and they are tied to compensation, promotion, or other rewards. here we are talking about a raw dump of all data, which is the opposite of a reductive metric, and there is no compensation or reward tied to providing the data.
