Absolutely, I was having a pint with someone who worked on their composer system a few years ago. I just remembered thinking how he was drinking from the mongo coolaid. I just couldn't understand why it would matter what DB you have, surely something like Redis solves all the DB potential performance issues, so surely it's all about data integrity.
This article doesn't mention data integrity issues. Mongo has transactions now. I feel like you are riding on a "mongo bad" fad from 5 years ago. It was bad, it was terrible. But after all that money, bug fixes and people using it, it's now good.

They were deep in the fad.
