The IB patch data type caries with it a lot of useless information that is not required by most simulation. As such, we are wasting much time moving data around and our page reads/writes deal with data that is not very coalesced.
A refactor is to be introduced that eliminates model and airfoil parameters for IB patches. They will instead be their own data types. Documentation of this refactor is quite important, as it will fundamentally modify how case files are read in with regards to IB patches.
