Will Effectivity destroy product traceabilty?

Although still nobody were able to answer this question, I will not give up on this topic. I realized, that I have to look at the whole Effectivity topic in a much larger scale. 

I have found an old slide deck from 2012 were effectivity were definied as followed:

https://www.slideshare.net/ArasPLM/aras-innovative-plm-manufacturing-applications.

This concept sounds excellent! And it shows, that we shouldn´t have a PLM-centric view at Effectivity. The above concept requires access to the ERP system, like SAP of similar. This could be achieved with Federation.

Then instead of using effectivity on our own EBOM (which I somehow will never understand) we use effectivity on the corresponding federated data. It´s just a different kind of tree-grid-view, but it would perfectly blend in.
