A key question to consider is whether the concept of skip value conditions accounts for all
possible scenarios. Do we need more complex rules that evaluate multiple attributes
simultaneously? For example, should an `ADDRESS` of "123 Main St" be skipped only if the
`ZIP` is also "99999"? While supporting rules of this complexity wouldn't require
significant changes to the specification, it would increase the implementation complexity.
We recommend pursuing this type of **and** logic only if there is a clear and specific need
for it.

Does NBS have skip values? I imagine theirs would give us insight into how complex the skip rules might be.

Its a good thought, I brought it up with their team today. I believe the answer is no, but they'll get back to us on this.
