Would you consider adding a note to the readme like this one to keep the annotations just models? I'm not sure if the route decorations this added are helpful. I'm open to normalizing the other way though if you feel strongly it is helpful.

This is great but there is another note about this that is now contradictory in this readme. Once you reconcile this is good to go.
