    Just IMHO, nothing official. I think it is a legacy data arrangement from ages ago when WP was really just a blogging platform and not a CMS. I’m not sure serialized data was even used back then. The problem now is that updating the DB schema would break many old legacy sites, so we are stuck today with a DB design that was valid decades ago.
