As I just explained, this is not true for Mnemosyne.  Mnemosyne was
written to have both kinds of data in the same file.  Changing this
would require a massive alteration to the program's fundamental
architecture, requiring wholly new schemes for maintaining
correspondence integrity between separate files.

No.  Without the huge change to the architecture to make separate
learning data files, turning off editing would change Mnemosyne into a
completely basic flashcard program with no spaced repetition
scheduling ability (dozens of which already exist).  And that change
would absolutely not be simple.

If anything about this is unclear, I think the best tactic would be to
re-read this entire thread in entirety:
