Be aware that pickle is unsafe (as documented near the top of https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html), so prefer other serialization formats except between trusted processes

I can't remember the last time I _wanted_ to pickle something. Parquet and JSON pretty much cover it for me. I guess pickling made more sense before tools like Pydantic were good and popular?

If I want all the python-specific nuance on disk, I know I'm in a bad place!

I use pickle to serialize RPC requests between internal services. Nothing beats it in terms of speed and ease of use.
