This is a super interesting (and refreshingly candid) direction. You’re basically building a local-first “life event ledger” with delayed sync. Actually, I'm not an expert in this area, but I feel the challenge may not lie in data collection itself, but rather in ensuring the data remains secure, usable, and easy to maintain over many years. A custom binary format can work, but it could be a long-term maintenance commitment (schema evolution, tooling, corruption recovery).
