> At any rate, I don't think it's super coherent to argue that all the things must be fixed at once in order to justify improving one of the things.
I don't disagree with anything you said here, especially this statement above, but it seriously undermines the blog post and makes it sound more like "PostgreSQL is the latest hawtness, so we're going with that and grandstand about it for publicity".
I guess that's my real problem. It makes the whole thing sound like rearchitecting for the sake of publicity, instead of to address an actual issue.
