to me, that is OK.
How would it be good to USE an HanimJoint node, or any other hanim. It 
just should not be done, like no good reason exists.
Except maybe to try to transform right to left?
No way for hanim, maybe for other creatures.

Same for Meta. Why would I want another instance of the same meta 
data?

If possible, more like USE nodes should Not be allowed with these.

Thanks,
Joe
