For educational uses? I would not see a point to that one (just
don't tell the students about the complicated bits). The main
advantage would be probably for long-term archival purposes:
core components that should not change as much and be more
stable over time and thus make it easier to maintain the data
over long-term.

If it made more guarantees on the structure and presence of
specific information, it would also be more useful for present-day
exchangeability.

That's what I'd have picked, too.

Long-term stability and exchangeability. I find this an excellent
point in favor of "MEI Core". The concept also includes the
educational purpose. <br>
<br>
Merriam-Webster:<br>
1 a: A central and often <u>foundational</u> part usually distinct
from the enveloping part by a difference in nature.<br>
h : an arrangement of a <u>course of studies that combines
under basic topics material from subjects conventionally separated</u>
and aims<br>
<u>to provide a common background</u> for all students: "core
curriculum"<br>
2 a : a basic, essential, or <u>enduring</u> part (as of an
individual, a class, or an entity) <br>
<br>
(Admittedly, less sexy than "Go!".) <br>
