Qs about player_spell, item_instance

I noticed that when you learn new spells, they are put in player_spell. But the original spells you were created never show up there. I assume this means the server is checking playercreateinfo_spell every time the character is loaded. Is there a reason for that, or is it just one of design accidents that never got changed?

Also, why aren't the columns in item_instance broken out the way they are in item_template?

Why would they store the same information for each player when they can just get it from one place? This seems more logical.

Because someone a long time ago thought blobs would be a good idea. There are plans on changing this but no one has done it yet.
