@xor In a previous life, we built a database where the relations mapped to spreadsheets. It was fast enough for humans to enter and review and for printers to print.
Queries were quite slow to set up but fast to evaluate. They were constructed by creating new relations, building the first line out of links, and then doing a copy-paste to fill up the form with them. Good enough that small companies used it for their main ledger.
