If you are avoiding network latency and turning off indexes, then you
are using some kind of a bulk-load strategy.

If you are not concerned about parsing costs or storage churn, then
you are simply evaluating the costs of a non-bulk-oriented strategy
and determining that they are minimal for your needs, which is fine.
