I think I better title would be “reality reveals that ideas were actually bad”.
The issues described in this blog are about the challenges of persisting a consistent set of data, when you need to support a lot of read and write access. That is just a fundamentally difficult problem. Databases are the most sophisticated tools we have for doing that, but really they just tend to be a set of (hopefully) well implemented trade offs that attempt to nicely balance all of those conflicting requirements.
If a person can’t find a way to adequately persist their data, then their idea is probably bad, or they just don’t have the competence to implement it. An equally suitable title for this post could have been “why doesn’t magic exist”.

If you can't actually retain your business data, it really doesn't matter how many "good ideas" or fancy deployment strategies for the presentation tier you have.
