Yes, although we have a release of 2.0 coming up, and the PouchDB project is really active. The problems couch can solve (e.g data safety and offline capability) probably aren't considered when initially building a product. Also moving from SQL to CouchDB is quite tedious, although my company just went through that process :)

I feel stupid maybe, but can pouch/couch sync anything other than an entire database? The lack of granularity there always turned me off.

Yup, filtered replication supported by pouchdb + couchdb - http://pouchdb.com/2015/04/05/filtered-replication.html.

There are also other models, sharding individual databases per user or some other application logic. There are definitely some use cases we dont handle amazingly right now, but its all heavily being worked on.
