Comment(by strk):

 pramsey: anything to add to this thread ?
 Chris: you're still not showing any data... which is frustrating :/

 To be honest I keep thinking that turning geometries into NULL is not
 nice, as complete location information is gone. I understand the need to
 reduce as much as possible, and I think "as much as possible" is a single
 point, not NULL. NULL is really dropping information, not generalizing it.
