To add to your point about schemas. The new generation has not learned that the data almost always outlives whatever throwaway front end was written to work with said data. Tying the data to some sort of flavor of the month framework is setting up for all sorts of pain later.
I despise mysql, but even it is better than mongo. At least with it I can easily transition the data to many different uses.
Also, and a point I find amusing is that many users of nosql claim schemaless and then go and write a layer on top of the datastore to enforce a schema. It would have been so much simpler to use a RDMS out the gate instead of badly implementing one.
