Re:MongoDB gets support for multi-document ACID transactions by Thaxll on Thursday February 15, 2018 @07:32PM (#16389010)
You're implying they couldn't fix MongoDB or reached the limit which is false. In the current ( HN ) post they said they fixed it, I'm pretty sure they didn't have any experience in DBs in the first place hence why they asked for help.

Nowhere in the original post they mention issues related to MongoDB itself it was probably bad design on their side.

OK I should have been clearer about my interpretation - I read flying in experts as they flew in experts from MongoDB and stumped them so that had me thinking maybe this is not possible if they stumped them. Earlier in this thread one of the engineers from MongoDB says Epic solved the issue but had not updated the blog so I was wrong about that.
