Should this script be calling update_row (or some other indexing func) instead of its ad hoc query?
Yes, these functions are more secure and error-proof than ad hoc code may be, and it's best to not reinvent the wheel each time we need to access the database. So, I have now rewritten the script to use update_row and replace_row. I have left the other code in comments in case I made a mistake and need to reference it.
