I agree in practice, although I don't think that's the way sfdc's marketing team has presented it at all. In fact, I don't think I've ever heard anyone connected w/ sfdc ever use the phrase "limited scope of what our platform offers" for force.com's offerings, but I'm glad not everyone over there is drinking the kool-aid :-)
