Thanks for responding and your thoughts! Generally agreed with all you said.

However, I feel like maybe a different approach could be to store all the app state in the DB, and then export to this text only format when needed; like when interacting with LLMs or when someone wants an export of their data.

Breaking the file into smaller blocks would necessarily need a cache system I guess, and then maybe you're implementing your own DB engine in the cache because you still want all the same functions of being able to query older records.

There's no easy answer I guess, just different solutions with different tradeoffs.

But what you've built is very cool! If I was still doing text based accounting I would have loved this.
