Thanks @Nick_Milner - appreciate your thoughts and inputs to community - folks like you make this “community” a good community - so looking forward to your continued contributions here.
regarding removing Currentvalue out of filter clause - while removing it could work when table is involved but filter can be applied to List as well -for e.g List(10,20,30).filter(currentValue> 15) to get all values above 15 from the list. so for now, we need to keep using CurrentValue to refer to the filter context.
again, we are aware of needs to refer to outerContext and would appreciate use cases /suggestions/feedback community provides us on this. so please keep them coming!
