Oh I read the post and a few of the other linked posts so I'm aware. If we're storing a file, we're already storing a file of some kind, so we're just talking about what kind of file it is. I'm just talking about a different set of tradeoffs one can make if that file is something other than JSON.

It's not just a file "of some kind", it's a text file. That's one of Obsidian's key selling points - that a vault is simply a collection of text files. The "text" part is important to both Obsidian's philosophy and the majority of its users.


Sure! And in a lot of ways this is about values more than technology.
