Well, as long as you are aware of the fact that the whole collection (an
OrderedCollection uses an underlying Array) will be read or written *in
full* whenever read or written (which can take some time) - then there
is no major good reason I think. :)

MagmaCollections also allow some concurrency of course, but I presume
that is not interesting for you.
