Exactly localStorage wasnt build as a replacement for your dataStore, its just a convenient place to put some of your data, things like preferences, keep ui state across pages etc, its a perfect replacement for cookies without the HTTP overhead, turning it into a more sane localJSON api is like 10 lines of code. I do agree that we should be making sure we move to more robust solutions that were designed for large amounts of data and queries etc when there is a requirement for them, but that doesnt mean localstorage is bad or evil
