Let me ask you this - how would I use citusdb in such a way that it does not become a tax on my growth?

In other words, big data usually precedes big revenue, but most data products are priced per datum not per revenue.

So to put in indelicately, who can afford this and if they could, why would they? (after all those who could afford it, eg: bloomberg have strong reasons not to)

Cheap in only the most puerile sense - the complexity and availability foists a particular cost on HBase that is just too high for most people.

Man I love graph abstractions and database, but the inevitable questions comes - why HBase? Why not use a database that isn't nearly impossible to set up?
