This list is useless. What are the salient aspects of Python programs versus other programming langs/environments (e.g., Javascript, C++) that imposes different demands on a database system?
The answer is 'nothing'. So just use Postgres.

You have to join five tables in a query. What join order will you pick in your execution plan? Will you use the same ordering for different WHERE clause parameters? What if you add an index?
What you're proposing was tried in the 1970s (see CODASYL) and it was a terrible idea.
