When one partner applies second brain principles to the entire relationship

My spouse got really into the whole second brain movement after I introduced them to it, but now they're trying to systematize everything including our household management and even our conversations. They want to create shared databases for our decisions and reference past discussions like they're research notes, and it feels like they're turning our relationship into a knowledge management project.
