I’ve seen people think they’re reasoning about it when I fact they are not. I was on a project where the developers we Node pros for years. They were flummoxed when they couldn’t introduce transactions because they didn’t close over the database connection. When I said they had to hold the same connection through all the method calls, I was told I was wrong and that a global pool would be able to handle that without some external tracking mechanism.
