I have a kneejerk reaction against "there is something, anything at all, wrong with PostgreSQL" posts. I don't think it's because i'm in a cult.
I think it's because, despite real flaws, PostgreSQL is still the best all-round option, and still the thing i would most like to find when i move to a new company. Every post pointing out a flaw with PostgreSQL is potentially ammunition for an energetic but misguided early-stage employee of that company to say "no, let's not use PostgreSQL, let's use ${some_random_database_you_will_regret} instead".
I suppose the root of this is that i basically don't trust other programmers to make good decisions.
