I think we could be friends. As an appdev turned database/BI dev, there are a lot of intricacies of databases that are just not intuitive and take a while to get down right. We're getting away from it by either moving to new tech or the tech is improving (adaptive query processing, auto tuning indexes, writable columnstore). Even when I was an app dev I said you live and die by your database, either it's data model or by not putting processing in the right place. It's an architecture thing and something that (generally) has to be addressed early on.
