Facts and Places are aggravating indeed

I found a book showing the cemetery where a person in my tree is buried.

Began entering this. First, does it go in a Cemetery fact or in a Burial fact? Seems duplicative, except for cases where person is not buried in a cemetery, so why not just have ONE fact for place buried, and call it "Burial?" Why is Cemetery needed?

But the real issue is even more annoying...the cemetery is in a county that is already in FTM. But when I select that as the place, then enter the cemetery name in description, FTM creates a SECOND instance of the county, even though I use the pull down and select the county that already exists.

I don't want two instances of the county in my places. I don't need two instances, but FTM say that I *WILL* have two instances if I want to enter this fact.
