You're probably right that it's not a rare problem, but at the right scale it can be a business ending problem.

  True. I'm just amazed that there seems to be a fair amount of back-end developers who don't know anything about this. Probably because SQL systems are used at more conservative companies with older customers?

    That's a good question. I think part of this can be attributed to the efforts taken by the database World to demystify database operations and abstract some of the processes to the point where infrastructure by click became easy enough for these problem to be completely forgotten about or overlooked by your modern developer doing business as DBA (swidt?). Can insert? Can query? Nothing more to do here.
