> I’ve never been frustrated at 2am that my data in sqlite3

What if its not your data? And you've never used sqlite3 or Postres? Its 2AM, they couldn't get a hold of the guy who wrote the code because he's on vacation, or he wrote it 20 years ago and retired....so they haul your sorry self out of bed?

You really gunna be wanting to be reading sqlite3 tutorials, while your boss and boss's boss's boss is on the video call?

I don't want to overstate my case, and sure there are plenty of reasons to use a database to store your data. I was just trying to answer the question of the person who asked why human-readable formats are preferable. They are not in all circs, of course, but all other things being equal you will appreciate it when the fit hits the shan.
