    Sanitizing and merging data sources isn’t some arcane art in which one needs decades of training to be proficient.

    Like I said: I do it every day.

    But go on and tell me how hard my job is; I’ll put it on my performance review.

      Uh, it is hard. If it wasn’t they wouldn’t pay you for it.

      Don’t sell yourself short.

        Then I guess I don’t understand what point you’re arguing.

        Because I guarantee someone would do the job if the data was available.

          Who’s going to pay for that data from every tiny PD to be sanitized? Every PD will be slightly different and they may change vendors every couple of years. It sounds like a nightmare.

          My point is you don’t want or need “all the data”. You only want the 0.001% that involves use of force.

            My job has clients who change vendors constantly, too.

            It’s not nearly as big a deal as you’re making it out to be, especially since you don’t even know if your unlikely hypothetical scenario even happens.

            So… Whatever I guess.
