I would have to change all our scripts to change how this is done. I can do that and it would not be that hard (it would take some time, but it can certainly be done). However, how does that impact our millions of users who currently use the system and their scripting, etc. Right now, people only have to go one place and use their current ENVR in the call and they can get anything. They would have to change their scripting to look in all the different places if we shift. I am unsure how that might impact people.
