That's not library management, and it's not a replacement for Lightroom/C1.
"If you give up on these features, it's a replacement" doesn't make it a replacement.

Well not if you use the library management, it's not no.
People often use other software as replacement for establishes software, even though not every single feature is available. I still would say Firefox can be a chrome replacement.
There are many image editors. The primary appeal of something like Lightroom is image editing workflow - library management and editing combined. Being able to organize and move around your library is a core feature.
My images are also stored in date-based folders, but C1/Lightroom allow me to very quickly move between folders and identify the file I want, search for files I've rated highly or tagged with keywords/colors, and more.
A believe you. But it's not like that for everyone. Every raw editor I ever used was strictly for editing a single project at a time.
