Interesting post, short and sweet. I quite like a one table design.

Regarding the references in your article, I like thinking table 
lookups in Lua so much that it is interfering with my attempts at 
full immersion in C++. Maybe a good thing too. But I guess there 
are no perfect solutions to managing large-scale complexity, only 
plenty of tools to choose from.
