Description
- Index contains graph + dataset
- Right now naming of index is associated with the type of dataset bound, but should instead be associated with where the graph is located too
- Do we need to introduce a type for the graph? (ex. Host_graph vs device_graph)

Research direction
Start by locating the C++ API definitions and usages of host_standard, device_standard, and padded_index. Trace how Index combines the graph and dataset, then clarify whether graph location needs its own type; done means the naming consistently reflects both graph and dataset locations.
