Most people here have not understood the relational model, so yes.


I’ve read most of Codd’s book on the subject and have written SQL on and off since the mid 90’s and I still need to look up the differences between the various joins anytime I use them.

I also assume you dont try to throw mongoDB on every problem where a SQL database is clearly superior.
