As long as you never store the same data in two places, documents are fine. But if you’re gonna store my name along with my id on the post you’re describing, then forget it. Your entire life is pain from now on and you will not give a single shit about join efficiencies, or converting between docs and relational, or maybe even your family, pets or home.
