Instead of being the one product I've ever found in this niche that actually is intuitive to the way my mind approaches storing information, tasks, etc., now I have to try to fit my brain around whatever structure they build into their database. It's a completely different experience, interacting with something where I have to change to fit it, rather than its already fitting me.

If my brain worked like a database, I'd already be using one of the dozens of products that depended on a database structure. I don't doubt that this will be more mainstream because of the decision, but it will ruin what made the product useful for me.
