 Bentley delivers, and others copy, utility levels bifurcated into a nominal (2D) and a 3D with a &amp;quot;_3D&amp;quot; suffix. 
 This offends my instinct towards data normalization. 
 I reflexively think &amp;quot;but the 2D graphics are in the 2D Model,</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Utility Levels with _3D: WTF?

&lt;p&gt;I remember that you and I had this discussion quite a few years back. My question was &amp;quot;why, and is this necessary?&amp;quot; My answer to my own question was readily resolved by not following this practice :-)&lt;/p&gt;
