I'd hardly call it a shitty comment, and I hope I didn't make you feel put on the spot.

But another important thing os to have a way to access and manipulate them easily. For a given field, this should be standardized first before even mentioning the word blockchain.

I think this is an important point which I didn't do a really good job of making clear. It's also one of the reasons why I'm more favorable towards offchain references than onchain stuff.
