Hi,


I think to store in one database column an array is a bad practice.
for example store in one colmun the person name, age and professoin, is  wrong, 
it should be another column and/or another table, when a multicolumn
array is stored in a column.



Including the fact some features are not available for this kind of store.



Do you have a valid reason to do this?



Thank you
