That way I can look at files directly instead of needing to unpickle or to load up sqlite or whatever. It just seems like overkill when it's unnecessary. Depending upon how you are updating data, using sqlite or some database might make sense, but if you're just reading in or writing out entire text files, then I'd just recommend skipping sqlite and instead just writing to the files directly.
