Gosh, is that really true? My own experience has been just the opposite: I
routinely load all kinds of stuff into Core Data and maintain, fetch, and
store it from there, rather than building my own data structure, and I've
migrated into Core Data in situations where I used to have my own data
structure, just because Core Data is such an easy way to handle the general
case. And this is for data that is neither complicated nor large. m.
