Support for Deeper Nesting? #40

Open dougbrn opened 1 month ago

dougbrn commented 1 month ago

Currently we're focused on just a single nested layer underneath the base layer, as motivated by the time-domain astronomy use case. Do we want to enable further nesting? The main questions would be:

What limit if any do we pose on the number of nested layers? 3 covers the cases we've considered in astronomy (time-domain spectra).
How should the API be built to accommodate this?

We need more use-cases for that
