It's confusing to see responses like this.

We continually hear about how great MongoDB supposedly is from its advocates, with them claiming it's suitable as a general-purpose database.

Yet when somebody who has apparently used it in a production setting speaks out against it and its numerous flaws, the problem isn't with MongoDB. No way! It's a "problem" with the app "not being suited for" what MongoDB is "good at".

I don't thing any database/technology is well suited for everything. And never said as such.

But as a counter point... We don't know this was a 'general purpose' problem... so your point isn't even valid even if you were responding to something I said... Unfortunate.
