Come on. Either you want a relational database to be used properly, or you don't want a relational database. The reason you choose a relational database is for the exact reason that you are trying to avoid, which is having to figure out how your data relates within your enterprise, which includes the rework and redesign which is required if your business changes. Once you deviate from this, you might as well not use the RDBMS at all.
