>TPF is not modern. It would fail every architectural review a contemporary engineering team would apply to it. It also handles 50,000 transactions per second with sub-100ms latency on hardware that costs a fraction of an equivalent cloud footprint. It has been doing this for 60 years.

What kind of review would it fail? Sounds like it's pretty well designed to me.
