Should we add at BP about subsetting data?

Description:
For very large datasets, working with the entire dataset can be impractical. Even smaller datasets are more useful if data consumers can obtain subsets of the data as needed. Subsetting enables re-use and custom analysis by breaking the data into building blocks. Recognizing the utility of subsetting, should we add a best practice reflecting that? We have use cases for it. We also have a use case for enabling bulk access, so maybe we could write a best practice that suggests making data available in both ways.
