Except that the advantages and compatibility are not all there. Plus there are now fully managed options for the real thing.

The advantages are real. Compatibility might not be 100%, but honestly Mongo isn't magic. DocumentDB has strengths of it's own.
I'd be happy to learn about your experience developing an application against DocumentDB and its strengths. Care to share?
im actually building a fairly well massive app with documentdb and service bus. its not a user facing app, so i dont know if that counts for what you were talking about.
Sure, use case aside - expressiveness or the query language, learning curve, secondary indexing etc - keen to hear how all this feels to a new developer to the platform
