No I might not. In these similar situations, I will use sqlite, unless someone can point out one of the items listed above as a reason to use something else.

Oh, I am nothing but liberal when it comes to CSV: Clients get the liberty to either have their requests processed, or get a 400 BAD REQUEST And yes, I am aware that the standard says this. My counter question to that is: How much client-li
