Yes, but that GUI was only doing local work, we have much higher requirements today.

The GUI was doing local work, but the database could be remote. Delphi's name is even a pun on Oracle.

I'm not saying they were halcyon days. I'm saying that the effort to do things is not necessarily less these days, in part because we have different expectations (not necessarily requirements) today.
