Speaking of context, sincere question: what does "furry" indicate in this one? Because I'm guessing it's not about people who like to dress up as animals, but I'm also not sure what the metaphor of "hairy" data represents. Noise? Roughness?
NB: English is my second language. "Furry" is a superlative form of "hairy" for me.
Above I meant that our analytical events are not short bits of data like "main screen open at 11:25:15 UTC”, but a bunch of stuff, most of it repeating in every element of array: phone OS, vendor, version, connection type, session time, previous screen, etc all grouped into nested objects. No wonder it compressing next to nothing.
