On a related note, the system I work on has a couple of million data collection points. Sometimes there are spelling errors in the point names; while it may seem prudent to correct them, if those points are used in calculations, that causes the calculation to fail... but only when the calculation engine is restarted. Otherwise, the calculation engine parses the input names at load time and then uses the internal point reference number - something that never changes.

Some of the layered products (displays, etc.) use the collection point name, but, the newer products are maintaining the internal point reference number and, when a point is renamed, the change is made auto-magically in the newer products.

So.. there is hope.
