What's Wrong?

I don't understand why a large amount of historical conversation records are being written to C:\Users\[username]\.claude.json. Wouldn't this approach present the following issues:

1.This file will continue to grow larger, making it difficult to read and parse quickly;

2.When searching for historical conversations via the /resume command, Claude will have to search through this entire file;

3.Writing historical conversations to this file violates the Single Responsibility Principle. What is the reasoning behind this design approach?

This seems entirely unreasonable.
