Airbyte is definitely one of the MDS vendors. Plus they have a ton of bugs because their only focus is having the most connectors on the market. A lot of them are broken or badly implemented.

I don't doubt the bugs. In fact, I expect them because so many of the connectors are community contributed and so I try to think of it as more like GitHub than a curated set of expertly-built connectors. That said, for the time being it's more important that I not break my other rules. The promise of a perfectly working connector (if such a thing exists) in exchange for unknowable pricing or a SDK I'm gonna have a hard time training people on is a tradeoff I feel I can't reasonably make right now, but I'm very open to the idea that my calculus may change.
