As a developer: What? Almost everything is relational. I do appreciate Mongo's query language and ease of use (it was the first DB I learned), but your statement is ludicrous. Think about a basic blog system. You'll have relations between authors, posts, categories, and comments. In my experience, Mongo is most often used with ORMs that emulate joins, like Mongoose. And the possibility of data inconsistency due to lack of transactions is ignored, or patched over with cleanup scripts after the fact.
