None of what you detail though is included in what the GP describes as a modern database.

I’m not trying to nitpick but what GP describes aligns to what Mnesia provides.

The GP mentioned CockroachDB though. There’s a lot of implicit functionality behind that name. Even just behind mentioning Postgres.

The distributed part of modern sql is fairly recent.
