Exporting to a relational db is beside the point. You can very easily just export a CSV file and double click it in DB Browser and have something working. Or you could export the XML document and write a quick importer for it. But genuinely what benefit does it provide other than allowing me to hack at my unencrypted db with sql statements? All the benefits that I was referring to are for daily usage of a KeePass client, not for a one off export.

None at all. That is why I am saying it should be entirely optional so most people can just ignore it and those wanting the alternate schema can get their feature request fulfilled.
