YES. We are on the same page now. It’s the kind of thing that’s easier to show than to put into words. For example, I could demonstrate this with a spatiotemporal database in, say Excel. Lay out the steps of production as well as the logical ordering. Each can have a distinct column. But the only column requiring unique values is that of the date/time/space location value. In all others there can be multiple “step 5” for example.
