I am sorry, but I spend most of my time "fixing" the very idea that
somehow object-oreinted developemnt works in the relational model.

It doesn't.

We must separate the two and the place to make the cohesive "glue" is
not within the database with composite type, compound arrays.

Let's keep it standard relational please.
