I’m still with you on the complete reimagining of how a computer stores and accesses ‘code files’, but there’s still a challenge with ‘small files’, which is to say the hundreds or thousands of chunks of code that can have dozens of uses (Plex’s metadata cache, for example, or the hundreds of shared libraries that allow larger more complex programs to be built small by referencing them).
One benefit of folder hierarchies (and I don’t think there are many) is that it’s easy to delete/move hundreds of thousands of tiny bits of associated data just by deleting/moving the parent.
