I have mused on the maintainability (since that is dear to my heart), but I
think having the north/south, summer/winter in one relation will be simpler
that breaking-out more sub-relations - and I think simplest is best.
Anyway, what I am proposing is a step along the way to a more complex
implementation which could be done if this approach doesn't seem to be
working.
