Scenario 3 is card catalogs, which relies upon filing rules. Scenario

Scenario 3 calls itself "‘Flat file’ database structure (no links)", and
I suspect that there are catalogs that do not have database-managed
links between headings and authority files. They are, as you say, kind
of database versions of the card catalog, but they are still databases.
