Sure, for the MCVs specifically I tried to select which columns belong together 
to also have value for the end-user when running a query. Basically in 
accordance what the docs suggest, i.e. [1] section 14.2.2.3 last paragraph. 
Given the nature of the data I however think this can be very difficult to do 
without requiring further user input. Likewise, as the others suggested, it did 
not help for this particular case.

Cheers,
Sebastian
