FeatureSets are mutable data and TrainingSets are consistent snapshots of feature data (from FeatureSets). I fail to see what that has to do with composability. Join is still available for FeatureSets to enable composable feature views - join is resuse of feature data. GroupBy is just an aggregation in a feature pipeline, not sure your point here. You can still do star schema (and even snowflake schema if you have the right abstractions).
