If the goal of a project was to, "use a type safe language" then it can only be successful if you use a type safe language.

If the goal of a project is to, "create a crud app for your 5 coworkers" then it really doesn't matter whether you use SQL or not.

If the goal of a project is to, "server 100 billion requests per second" then maybe you should consider microservices in a monorepo (those things are not mutually exclusive).

Success, or not, only matters in the context in which you have defined success.
