I don't deny how powerful PostgreSQL is, but it appears that the decision to choose PostgreSQL was the most significant issue all along. It's shocking how often we find teams selecting Postgres to implement a solution that it's not suitable for. Yet, you see a document with a forced and non-logical narrative trying to justify the decision.

With the NewSQL options available today, which provide distributed relational databases with multi-masters out of the box, it seems to me that many teams select Postgres simply because that's all they know, and that's the source of the problem.
