This is not because CommunityRequests will be used on multiple wikis (which x1 is typically used for), rather x1 just has a lot more breathing room so it will be a good fit for us.

Just to note that this is a common misconception. There is a wikishared database on x1 for shared/central tables and features but each wiki has its own database too and many features while not being central, use x1 instead of core. Being central is a nice addition but the main purpose of x1 is to offload core sections not centrality.

Thanks for clarifying! I had thought that given what you told us in our 1:1, but the docs say x1 is for "databases that are "global" or "cross-wiki" in nature". I don't know if deserves any rewording, just pointing it out. (I know it's a wiki and I can edit it too, but I clearly am not qualified to try to explain x1, hehe)
