Mar 1, 2026March 2026: Implemented a refactor of the Reading Model Retrieval Logic in edgex-go to improve maintainability and readability. The logic was moved into separate functions, reducing duplication and centralizing query handling to accelerate future changes and feature iterations. This work is documented in commit 630e2b441693f46b24c9fdcdbeefd5e03a45a124 (Signed-off-by: Ginny Guan).
