Comment (by irl):

 One thing that comes to mind is NASA's ontology of units. They have a
 number of units defined that wouldn't make any sense on their own, but
 they are found in intermediate steps of solving equations. If we begin
 moving to big data stream/batch processing with databases and object
 stores then we are likely to find ourselves with individual entries that
 are stored on disk as objects or in databases independently of the network
 status document they came from.

 I believe for bandwidth files they should be "bandwidth-list" to use the
 same terminology as the spec. The spec filename is "bandwidth file" but
 the actual content of it calls them "lists".
