So I figured out the basic way for this to work (iterative macro, centroid, etc), but I kept getting stumped on points for lines. I did the Inspire surf location distance one earlier today with a Multi-Row Formula and it was a lightbult moment where I realized that that would be totally applicable for this as well.
