    Db normalization is great in theory, but applying the theory can be tough for someone like me.
    Your case might be a decent example of "Normalize until it hurts, de-normalize until it works". If storing a value solved a problem like this for me, I'd definitely do it but likely wouldn't use it.
    The more we hear silence, the more we begin to think about our value in this universe.
    Paraphrase of Professor Brian Cox.
