I say do it, if it simplifies the architecture. For example if you are using firestore with a redis cache layer, that's 2 dbs. If you can replace 2 dbs with 1 db (postgres), I think it's worth it. But if you are suggesting using a postgres cache layer in front of firestore instead of redis... to me that's not as clear cut.
