Engineering Discussion

From a user perspective, rarely do end users actually want to search for and/or find old versions of products. They are irrelevant to current science use cases, and we do not want to present that to the users. Newer versions indicate better metadata and better data. This is why the default functionality for all endpoints (except this specialized one) should be only return the latest versions (those without a superseded_by specified).
