Normalization means something else #7

Hi there,

This package looks interesting and helpful for situations, but I think it's confusingly named. Database normalization is the process of structuring data to remove redundancy. It seems that this package actually introduces redundancy in order to make things easier to access. This is actually what I would call denormalization.

Of course, you could argue that you're inventing a new "normal" and that his package normalizes to that, but given the domain, I'd say that's confusing.

Anyway, I doubt you want to rename your package, but I felt like pointing it out since it was actually harder to find when I was looking for something that would denormalize json api responses 😀

Thanks!
