The sandbox is not really built for best practices

While I appreciate where this is, there are some glaring issues with the implementation that leave this feature being not able to be used in a manner all IT best practices would recommend.  Examples ...

I did run into a surprise with the sandbox and that when you have the sandbox enabled, any automations which run saved table to table imports will not run in your production app.

I never quite understood why having a sandbox active would prevent the running of an automation in production but yes indeed I did get that answer from Support.

    Were you able to find out if it was any automation or just table imports?

        And another, you cannot create new relationships in the sandbox and you cannot even create them if the sandbox is enabled.
