I'm not competing on the technical position of the issue, yours is
very respected. I'd like to put the accent on the "social" part of it
and on the fall back on our beloved DB.

I think there are far more people knowing just one DB and badly than
companies with such strict (insane) policies and... well PostgreSQL
is very standard compliant.

I'd beat another horse ;)
