Makes sense and I enjoyed the article.

Estimating the complexity of using a project can be really...complex. I think about systems I have used which make it easy to use a minimal set of features and where I don't have to reason about or be negatively impacted by aspects I do not benefit from, and other systems where things are less easily isolated and more challenging to reason about.

I do think the Postgres docs in particular seek to be a reference in addition to an operating manual and I for one really enjoy them. I think the point is well made that Postgres can be too much (or too much right now) for many projects.
