Really, rolling out the Mongo spite from '13? Isn't there a statute of limitations on this sort of pgres fanboy balderdash?

Even SQLite doesn’t lose data.

This “spite” reveals serious core design flaws in Mongo that still have yet to be addressed.

If someone has data showing otherwise — that the abject reliability and scaling issues were resolved via something like a complete rewrite, I’d be glad to reconsider my views (they won’t have any though).
