This is a bug in the sense like using serialized arrays in old forms using usegroup as string not id,
Simply is a bug that database is not normalized, database layout is not done right. It's not throw any error but it's a bug. It's not how you design database, of course you don't need relation at all and have everything in one table with lots of redundancy and it still be working and it will not throw any errors if code is done right. I should report all those things in one bug. and they can be fix for new admin panel, and can be added to upgrader.
