@NateTheFinch @dhh @siracusa not saying it is impossible but "this tiny example works great, just super size it" is also a radical oversimplification. There's only 5 million people in Denmark? 327 million in US. Also a lot more spread out, more sub-states / regions, etc. Big examples are more analogous.
