That's a good question. And it's not necessarily better than Pickle in
all cases. However, one obvious advantage it has is that it saves data
in a human readable format, Python source code. My primary reason for
writing this is for AI code generating applications. It's easier to see
what's generated if it's stored as plaintext.
