Regarding the Mobile Geodatabase - Datasets docs:

I find that hierarchy to be misleading. I think views should be in a top-level point of their own, since they're not feature classes (and can be either spatial or non-spatial). 

  • Tables (nonspatial)
  • Feature classes
    • 3D object feature class
    • Annotation (including feature-linked annotation)
    • Dimensions
  • Views


I think that would be more intuitive. Or at the very least, add Views to the Tables group too, since views can be non-spatial.

Thanks.
