Exactly right. Every drainage system for a given development area, is self-contained. As additional development areas are added to The Villages, the drainage system expands to include the new catchment area, but there's minimal interaction between the "before" & "after".

It would be a rare circumstance to re-visit a previously designed drainage system or move additional water (drainage) back into an area that's already been designed, implemented and presumably at close to maximum capacity.
