To illustrate that, I there were PostgreSQL days in 2011 in NYC and 
MongoDB days in NYC in 2011. Postgres event was dwarfed by the MongoDB 
event. That showed me everything I needed to know. Part of the reason why 
PostgreSQL remains obscure database used by scientific institutions which 
have very little money and practically nobody else is the fact that it is 
simply inadequate database. Part of the reason why Postgres is and 
remains inadequate is the fact that its designers are arrogant enough to 
try telling their users what they need and what they don't need. The 
process works the other way around: users ask, designers implement.
