But that's just the point people have been making. A small enough db
will be cached completely in memory, and the only time you'll have to
access the disks is the first read, and during writes, which can be
made to happen mostly after the fact and not influence the rest of the
db.

You're trying to reinvent a wheel to solve a non-existent problem.
