Can someone explain this pro: "Database size and number of records are not a problem"

How is this the case if earlier there is a "limitation of not being able to ask ONLY for pieces I'm interested in"?

I am pretty sure not being able to choose the pieces is just a limitation of the specific library WebTorrent, not the Torrent protocol.
