It seems like this crazy Manichaean battle because there really are kind of two different worlds - the mostly-desktop world where there genuinely might not be any availability requirement (data availability is "somebody else's problem") and the server world where there practically always is. People who only know one get on forums like this and act like the others are being irresponsible, and if they tried to do each other's jobs that might be true. But in the real world, people usually agree pretty quickly on which world they're in and act accordingly.
