I for one will say your right. Just because the application is suppose to be
used in a particular manner does not mean that it always will be or that someone
will not come around through the back door to "patch" something. Also since I'm
a firm believer in data having a birth, life, retirement, and death how do you
cleanup without leaving orphans laying around? Sure is nice to smack the record
in the master table and have the foreign keys cascade the delete for you.

Hi all:
We have a situation where are no relationships are
defined at the database level. i.e no foreign keys
constraints have established at the Database. The
application is still at the Development Stage.
Everything is controlled at the application level.
I as the DBA appose this design for Data security and
also cannot reverse engineer from the tables into
Designer.
Can you please share you pros / Cons.
Thanks
