Nice example why Cursoradapter in the long run will be much better than RV.
Bad part is, Luis uses RV in this app.
As I have no idea how many RV are in use, how many apps he supports, it might be premature to hint at moving from RV to cursoradapter.

Does not stop me - CA and similar Dotnet structures IMO were best fit to link remote data to local machine. If Luis has hundreds of RV, (half-)automatic might be possible.

Not overblown like most ORM, but possible to use OOP ease of structured code.
