Would the "place" command then be taught as a "down" instead of a sit or does that stay as the "barely functional" part?

[@ultimate-k9]

No, the place command is a whole different animal, and those components serve a lot of different purposes. I do not recommend a down on a place. The dog will lose focus and probably go to sleep.
