Hi! Author here. Maybe it doesn't when applied correctly, but IME whether or not the technologies are a good fit aren't even discussed. At least in technical ("soil") terms; discussion is all about risk aversion in non-technical terms ("atmosphere") without saying that's what's happening. I don't think folks should sweat every technical decision and I think there are many ways to fail with exotic tech (I'd be hard pressed to think of a better choice than Redis or Postgres, for example) but somehow certain technologies seem to be used even though I feel they're terrible in for cases like server programming. Thanks for the read and thoughtful comment!
