It's important to keep in mind that the "collect now and analyze later" is exactly that. You don't have to worry about constraints and integrity, you just capture what you think is of value, which is likely to be all the things unless you're working at really large scales. For all intents and purposes, storing everything as text files is just as good for this task.

A schema just means the data has a well-defined structure, it doesn't mean you have to enforce constraints of any kind, though that often helps a lot. Data with no structure at all is very likely useless.
