I have no clue about Elasticsearch, so you might be right – but on the other hand, you just contradicted your own statement about how difficult databases are, so I have no idea which of your statements I should trust.

Then maybe you shouldn’t make a single statement about all means of transportation, claiming that you needed to be horse whisperer to ride any kind of bike, car, train, ship or plane.
