That may well be true, but doesn’t really make any point.

Oracle is an awful software company. Does that mean that we should use paper ledgers for corporate accounting?

No, but it might mean you should be careful about proprietary databases.

Which is to say I believe there is a point to be made in there about what can and has happened. And what there is to be cautious of.

The point there is that you don’t really have much of a choice once you’re a business of a certain size, you pretty much do Oracle Financials or SAP!
