I remember explaining our tech stack (Python and Zope) to clients.

“Where is the code for that page?”

“It’s in the database”

“Oh… Like MySQL?”

“No. It’s an object database”

“???”

I called it “Martian Technology Syndrome”. But it worked. At later stages we paid the price and had to serialize the datastore for migrations, but that’s what you get for relying on pickles.
