I'm pulling in RSS feeds and publishing articles for each item. when I do so, I set the published_at date to the same as that of the RSS item, but leave the created_at date on the event to be the present. this seems like the most protocol-respector way of doing it. but now I am running into the pain of returning articles from a certain date, filters can generally be made to apply to the presence or absence of tags, but not "since" or "until" type of operations on the "published_at" tag.
tl;dr - are there any obvious drawbacks to back-dating the events so I can filter appropriately at the relay layer?
