And the last 1 can be done (modeled) in a RDBMS when the scale/pressure/volume is low. In other words, wait until you feel the heat.

Yeah, Postgres off the top of my head does NoSQL (JSONB), graph and time series stuff either natively or through some cheap or freely available add ons. It really can do anything. It’s not gonna be the best at that non-relational stuff, but it will do a “good enough” job for most use cases until you introduce heavy scaling.
