It's easy to get a little laugh from this, but congrats to the guy for exploring. Now he knows first-hand the inordinate challenge and can describe it in detail, but more importantly avoid these hard-learned patterns later.

Great for the dev, terrible for everyone else who had to deal with it -in production-.

Depends, I’ve known people who have gone through similar experiences and still poo-poo all those “unnecessarily bloated” solutions like a proper database.

I make crappy thrown together frontends and will probably forever poo-poo the 'unnecessarily bloated' js frameworks

I worked with someone that was keen to use reductionist logic and arguments...

we ended up with a lot of shitty solutions to problems that were hard to maintain, hard to extend, and hard to use because the more "complex" solution was really just a fancy version of a folder and some text files.

He took "What I cannot create, I do not understand" to a whole new level.

Every database probably hits similar problems in development. But it is probably better to just use sqlite if you need it to help out.
