That is the norm in all "sporty" stuff. Expensive car/motorbikes/bicycles use light alloys that wear out much faster than heavier, cheaper materials

Have a look at the original Fiat 500, it's comically small. You need to remember that the average adult Italian man in 1955 was about 8 cm shorter than today's average, and it's probably similar in other european countries.

It could be explained by the herd mentality. An angry man alone would probably not throw stones in the street with his face uncovered; But he would probably do so in a riot. Now, in social networks, is quite easy to simulate persons and have them starting a riot. Having a way to identify real persons could make this more difficult.

Well, you still need to track down the <filename> part and knowing what you want to search, so you need to examine the schema anyway.

However, if your all application state can be represented in a single json file of less than a dozen MB, yes, a database can be overkill.

> Dealing with even sqlite is a pain in the ass when you just need to tweak or read something, especially if you're not the dev.

How? With SQL is super easy to search, compare, and update data. That's what it’s built for.
