Why not SQLite which is even more boring and comes with better guarantees?

  My guess is that he does a lot of manual editing of entries which is fast in a text editor and somewhat annoying to form SQL statements to do.

    There are lots of guis that make editing a sqlite db almost as easy as editing a spreadsheet.

      Didn't know about that, thanks! Might use some in my own work.

        A sqlite db is just a file. So at that level it is exactly like a spreadsheet. It's just a much more powerful storage format. But for the app opening it it can be presented much like a spreadsheet.

  I do'nt need those guarantees. It's one more thing to upgrade. vi is my DB editor.

    Honestly, at that point I'd rather use Excel / LibreCalc.
