That's true - but I think it goes back to "you will need." It's nice to query these things in the DB, but for most users you can just load everything based on associations and sort it out in memory. It's less efficient, but most of the time you will be ok.

It's ok until you have to deal with loading a bunch of point cloud or geometry data based on associations and sort it out in memory. Then PostGRES becomes your friend.

So C is okay for everything

I mean, yes - "you only ever need C in most situations" is true. You might like to use something else. You might be really glad to use something instead of C. And also...you could generally get by with C. Just like you can mostly get by using SQLite.
