Maybe something based on a namedtuple would work, since those are already used in the library.
```python
workouts = db.table(""workouts"", extracts=[Extract(
columns=[""source"", ""source_version""],
table=""Sources""
)])
```
Since namedtuples cannot have default values this should probably be a class instead. Actually it looks like there is a trick for defaults here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/18348004","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",472115381,
