James,

Apparently updating a join logical does not seem that absurd to many others. IBM does not usually pour time and talent into something that no one wants.

Please understand that by invoking "division by zero" as a comparable absurdity, I meant "absurdity" in the mathematical/logical sense of something that is not only undefined, but undefinable.

Updating the underlying data of a join-logical, by contrast, is quite meaningful, but needs to be defined on a case-by-case basis, hence the "instead of" trigger, and various other workarounds that allow one to do just that.
