Already I can see an advantage of EDS over pickle: EDS has tables, which allow me to separate my data into a more logical structure.
Well, you wanted simple, you got simple.

And how do you fetch only "key" or "key2" from the file? What if you've got one hundred keys? or ten thousand keys? or one million keys?
Well, I'd rather use sqlite than EDS for this, but OK, you have a point.

Do you have to load the whole file back into memory at once then write it all back to disk if you only want to update one key? That seems rather... slow.
Something similar happens to sequences all the time in EU, so personally I see this as an own goal. (Please don't be offended.)
