We recently executed a backup and restore of our core data model from production to non-production. Everything was aligned momentarily; However, as soon as we developed a couple new objects (cubes, rules, entity formats), the data model comparison tool exploded to show several hundred changes between environments. Of the several hundred, only ~5-6 were valid changes. Everything else was a "position change".
What is the purpose of calling out position changes as an actual difference between environments? My personal opinion is that it distracts from the actual delta comparison and clutters the UI. I'm either missing the value in showing this or it needs to be addressed.
