Dave Leininger (Likely) says
Rigid rules are contrasted with the open storage of raw data. The days of setting up perfect folders, for instance, to make finding emails and trends are long gone.

Similarly, relational structures are not performant for graph data at usable levels. AI will have plenty of examples, both internal to an organization and via accepted issue-specific models, to architect and tune storage.
