It looks like they started with the scripting language and this is a tactic of trying to get it out there (we all want to see our creations adopted, etc, so an understandable desire).
Unfortunately the pitch is hitting some of the wrong notes by being a bit loose with the truth in some of the narrative (e.g. implies that Berkeley DB doesn't have concurrency or transactions, and claims of significant benchmark superiority with no benchmarks at all to back it up), not to mention the buzzword soup on a page and for a product that is targeted at buzzword-adverse developers.
