I mean what percentage of companies are web scale or at your scale? I would guess around 1% being really generous. So it makes sense that the starting advice would be to not worry about scaling.
I get it, and I can't even say I blame the people for responding like that.
I think it is the same frustration I get when I call my ISP for tech support and they tell me to reboot my computer. I realize that they are giving advice for the average person, but it sucks having to sit through it.
Nothing quite as anger inducing as knowing WHY it is that way, but also knowing you are stuck, it makes no sense for you, and it sucks ass.
My new fav rant is the voice phone systems for Kaiser, which makes me say 'Yes or No' constantly - but literally can only hear me somehow if I'm yelling. And they don't tell you to press a number to say yes or no until after you've failed several times with the voice system.
All human convos have zero issues, not even a little faint.
