True, but more importantly for me, the Buttons Zone does not contain the Channels Zone as was implied by the earlier syntax.
Of course, nor does the Channels Zone contain the ButtonsZone, they are both part of the larger CompositeZone.

Only because it doesn't have a Navigator.
Just to further illustrate, someone might want to separate out the MCU assignments section to a new navigable Zone, but still enclosed within the initial Zone (Home).
The Asssigment Navigator might treat all of it's Widgets as Radio Buttons -- makes semantic sense here:

This allows us to create very modular Zone definitions that can be composed into larger logical units.
