Or is it that slightly annoying side of any job where complex words are made up to explain a handful of lines scribbled on a pad of paper showing something obvious... I expect it will be as useful as that wiki page where it is just a list of field names written out in a slightly more verbose form without any attempt to actually explain anything
Yeap, you got it. Nice thinking scribbles, or a visual summary/memory jogger for someone that knows a design, but alone not very informative. Another design snapshot is CRUD tables - what processes Create, Read, Update or Delete records from each table, but again "when" and "why" is often as important as "who dunit". Don't get me wrong, they all have uses, but alone none of them are a full spec.
