WRONG!  Storage is incorrect.  Anyone who thinks defining storage first 
is correct is only demonstrating an lack of ability to understand 
fundamental first-order logic.  It is a black and white logic issue.  
Defining storage first without understanding the dependencies on what 
will be serialized and sent is wrong. 

Scenario:
You define the storage and store aspects A,B,C and D of an object.  When 
someone requests a copy of it, they need A,B,C,D and Q.  You need to 
understand what they need before you know what you have to store.  If 
you knew that first, then you would know you had to store "Q" in 
addition to the other aspects.

What part of the logic are you failing to understand????
