Pun intended :) Anyway, my initial thoughts (from real world experience) is to avoid the stream operator persistence protocol. In other words, real world systems don't store data in blobs. While it may be easy for the application developer, it results in poor performance, poor scalability, and a nightmare when the data store exceeds some physical limitation. Furthermore, classes aren't modeled in single monoliths, and the persistent framework should reflect that object oriented applications are hierarchical by and far, shouldn't the data be as well?
