A database that did otherwise would likely be inefficient.
And there lies the root of all database evil. Such a close connection between the data and the storage goes against all principles of SQL. And the way SQL is implemented is already a weakened form of what it should have been.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
