Modeling on the subject of UMS v2 being single stage vs 3+1 has been ongoing. As I continue, I make various different queries that are intended to give me a solid overview of the situation. At the current time, I've had enough time to query a lot of things, and at the current time, 3+1 stages has a solid lead. It comes down to the fact that 1 stage simply cannot solve certain issues that must be dealt with in UMS v2 for it to achieve its goals with the majority of people.

Because of the challenge I have faced in finding the best answer, I am not yet finished modeling this. However, right now I'm pretty sure that the way to make this program achieve it's goals is to go the 3+1 stage route. While the models are calculating their answers, I am prepping the script for that outcome to save time. If the answer in the end comes out 1 stage, then this prep won't hurt anything. If it comes out 3.1, then I will have saved a lot of time in continuing the build. About 83% likely right now that we are looking at 3+1 stage.
