Also, do you honestly believe that they've created a database that is better then some of the databases currently on the market? There is so much downside to this it really does not make any sense.

It doesn't need to be "better" - a commercial database must provide huge gobs of flexibility.
A database custom built for poker does not need to be flexible. It need only do exactly what it whas designed to do. The downside is that it takes a lot of resources and expertise to build and maintain it, for a commercial venture those resources are hard to come by - but if you have a Com Sci department in your back pocket, it's not so hard.
