The "~Moved to" concept is there to avoid users having to regenerate thier models when we learn new information about a part's true identifier or (in rare cases) we change our minds about naming conventions. Is the size advantage you gain by in-lining "~Moved to" references worth the cost of perpetual maintenance.
