> This is basically the same as saying “databases weren’t designed for interns to run live inline migrations in prod”. Yeah of course they aren’t.

And the same as saying "databases weren't designed for non-technical people to connect with report-building tools like Power BI and Excel and run reports in the middle of peak customer checkouts."
