I am a proponent of source-separated data 🔢

Just because a field exists, doesn’t mean you should dump whatever crap fits in there without rhythm or reason. But maybe that’s the American-way — it’s the same kind of shit that landfill and sewage treatment plant operators deal with all of the time — the idea that if it fits, it ships, no matter what it is. The obnoxious things one has to deal with as the Data Services Director, lol.
