Well it's a good point.
The question is how much effort is anyone willing to put into SMPS. My
personal opinion is that modeling languages are the way to go, and if you
need to interface with databases and filesystems then some big company
like IBM should make it easy for you. But that isn't the case, yet, so we
have to think about interfaces.
If there is an interface that works and is fast then use it. IMHO

I think this should be fixed, as reading the .stoch, .core and .time
files is the simplest way to load a problem. Otherwise, it is impossible
to write code that will work on examples provided by a non technical savvy
user, as everything has to be coded and recompiled when using the
"direct interface pattern".
