Ussually programmers dont want to duplicate information more than needed.
If you get all the stored rows in a DB, you will duplicate all the rows.

I dont know what are you trying to do, but normally in any DB
application you have to limit the number of rows, like to 20,
depending on how will you display it and what kind of data it haves.
