They already are: it's called "big buckets".

<From Bill Manago, CRM "is it time for record managers to embrace and
take on the challenge of managing ESI as well as records?">

I have a lot of concerns about this, but the one that jumps out at me
right now is a concern that, 
Based on what I have seen in the past, these
arbitrary rules will then become "the way we've always done things" and
will get applied to all data past, present and future.
