I don’t think this is a win. Cautioning against adding new technology to learn and maintain is one thing. But not using an effective solution in your toolset because it’s too hard is absurd.

Our Industry pretends solutions must be immediately understandable with common sense, without study or explanation. But nothing that actually matters does this (relational databases in the first place).

No other engineering discipline has this confusion. The world has complexity and it’s our job to understand it.
