I believe I pointed out that I realize it's a human issue more than a technology one. It was easier for some people to get suckered in to the power dynamics being played because "DBA" was already seen as more of black-magic art sort of thing, and those guys were the "real wizards" and so forth, so whatever they say goes. It's not been everywhere I've ever worked where sprocs were used, but it seems to have been at the places where "stored procedures are law".
