They aren't. It's just that when you're used to one way of thinking,
switching to another is a pain.
What *is* superior is Python's choice of lists, tuples and
dictionaries for handling data. They are fast and extremely powerful.
In fact, the Dabo data set is based on these, and is as fast and
versatile as a VFP cursor.
