Do people really not mean types, referential integrity, indexes, transactions, queries, etc. when they say CRUD?

If table stakes for a database are more sophisticated than CRUD, what the hell is trivial enough to be CRUD then? Seems like a straw man.

And referential integrity, transactions, and SQL types are only dimly important in a Rails app or something in Node using Sequelize.

Plenty of apps--perhaps more apps than not--use a database as a vaguely typed (MySQL out of strict mode barely gives a nod to them) multiplayer notepad.
