Hi @Terdious 
I’m not sure this request is still relevant since the switch to DuckDB!
Could we close it?
Again, regarding your Netatmo integration, it’s entirely possible not to record identical values between two polls — you just need to add an if before sending the new value; that’s what I do, for example, in the LAN Manager integration (e.g.: LAN Manager: Should save a 0 once if a device is not discovered by Pierre-Gilles · Pull Request #2164 · GladysAssistant/Gladys · GitHub), but for me that’s not a global approach, it’s local to each integration!
