MySQL moment

How come people use sql instead of just using text files? I just use text files for everything
What are text files if not binary blobs on disk?
What is SQL if not a query layer over a bunch of binary blobs on disk?
Very zen.
@Bye @devilish666 file systems are a good replacement for a database for many use cases. however: some file systems are bad at handling many small files. also databases can do indexes, which file-systems can't: they are key-value stores
