Good point, however I need it in DB for many other things. But I could investigate on how to "mimic" this approach. Had stuff on file storage previously but searching was not so optimal and projections were hard, although it was cloud storage so no ACL was possible without having users as part of the cloud provider user system which was not an option at that point.
Sounds just like a filesystem. put the objects on disk, protect them with ACLs (eg chmod)

no reason not to use both
