Well, to be fair, if you're aiming to release your work into the public domain, it will need to be of a certain standard to be of any use to anyone. As Fire had previously mentioned, nearly everyone uses databases and, if not, learns how to. There is no use in attempting to create a new foundation of a lesser standard if everyone is aiming to be higher. Databases hold many benefits which outweigh the cost/burden of learning its use, which really does not take long if you are motivated. Furthering your knowledge is the only way to progress - your current method is very constrictive.
