it has not been designed for scale because a single instance temporarily couldn't scale up fast enough?

No, because a single instance needed to "scale up" at a very small user count.

It really needed to replace a defective set of SSDs. They migrated because they were already planning to, but, with a replacement set of disks, it could continue serving more users for longer and migrate on a more relaxed schedule.

Trollish usernames aren't allowed on HN because they subtly troll every thread they post to. I've therefore banned this account. If you don't want it to stay banned, we can rename it for you, as long as it's to something non-trollish.
