- david927 12y agoBecause you're talking about looking at it as data, you can get different views. It's all about viewing and working with the appropriate layer. We do it with civil engineering, we do it with drawing, we even do it with accounting systems. It's not about being all things to all people at all times, but about being the layer of the appropriate things for the appropriate people at the appropriate time. When we look at code as data, we can look at code in context.
