100% on all points. I’m a fan of gatekeeping things that are hard to get right, and hard to undo. If you can prove that you know what you’re doing, by all means, own your stuff. But until then, yes, I’d like to watch over your shoulder, and hopefully teach you how to do it right. The fact that DBs are data structures but are ignored has always irritated me. If I pushed a PR using lists for everything regardless of their practicality, I’d be rightly told to try again. But push a PR with a schema using similar suboptimal choices, and no one blinks an eye.
