See [[pdi-breakdowns#Location]].

I have---for some time now---
been trying to figure out the purpose of the non-system breakdowns.

[[location-vs-scope]]

Perhaps there is another dichotomy
in that an estimator may use the area classifications of the design
or according to their own understanding of each term.
For lack of a better example,
whether a "101 - KITCHEN", without provisions for cooking,
would be broken down under "Kitchen".
