This is a key concept to understand. If you sell something to Joël as a private
person *and* as a professional contact of C2C you need *two different
customers*. Just like you would have needed 2 different ones in 6.1.
When you use "Joël (Camptocamp)" as Customer you are referring to the
Commercial Entity "Camptocamp" via its representative "Joël (Camptocamp)".
If you also sell to Joël as a private person you are doing both B2B and B2C
sales in parallel, so you need 2 different customers records, just like in the
real world.
In v6.1 you would have needed 4 records to model this: 2 partners + 2
addresses/contacts. In v7 you only need 3: 1 business customer + his company,
and 1 stand-alone customer.
