Why can i not have a composite item that just consists of a single unit of an inventory tracked item

we want to be able to create composite items that just consist of a single unit of an inventory tracked item.

it looks as if this has changed since the original implementation in that it now allows you to just have one item code, but it forces you that the quantity must be greater then 1.

please can you explain the logic of why this restriction is in place? surely we should be allowed to choose how to use the system rather than havig it dictated to us.

please can you also explain whether there is any valid reason why you couldnt therefore remove the restriction.

it seems such a common problem with zoho, that things 'nearly' work as you would want them to, but there are so many disappointments
