In the Pick environment you can use the Pick DBMS to persist data or you can use the host OS's file system - or any other physical media, including that accessible through a relational database. Sometimes it makes sense to organise data into a two-dimensional matrix with, say, columns represting one dimension and columns the other. Sometimes it doesn't. The designer is free to choose whichever model is most logical. A willingness to be constrained to a two-dimensional model is what we call adherence to the illogical model.
