RE: [higgins-dev] Proposedupdates toHiggins ArchitecturediagramperAustin F2F discussions

Technically we could allow it (with changes to our architecture and its
layer, I just don't see why we need it. 

The TS does need to generate i-card data files. But other than that, I don't
understand why a TS service needs to (i) refer to an i-card data instance
that is managed in the i-card registry and (ii) use its interface.
