I have not the exact but a similar sense especially when we go higher normal forms.
I’d happy if someone could elaborate more one that, but to me it seems like if we do the higher normal form things eventually we get to a place very similar to tables being graph node/edge types and the table rows being the insances of nodes/edges. Even the join table in lower normal forms is clearly like an edge type, but ofc with tables I think it sucks more, because when you join tables it costs a lot, but in case of graphs the information is local to the graph node (table row) and there is no complexity boom issue.
Also, if we’d take it really far we could say every SQL Table shall only have 1 row meaning one node/object. I don’t think it’s partical, just a though lt experiment, wondering about its meaning.
