Its okay Steve,

For now logic of choice is:

1) USE SQL way on default to be similar to other dbs,
  many books and docs are about this.


2) IF you using LOCAL engine,
 OR you have  something web-related but everything is on localhost
 then you can be okay to use Valentina as non-SQL db
 using its powerful advance API way...


3) Class-way is one more level OVER API way ..
    ... When you are lover of API style ....
