the same world where mysql lets you corrupt your own data. did you just stop reading? in what world does a data corruption event prompt you to change platforms to another platform that has a history of data corruption?
MySQL handles it differently than Postgres, and gives them better performance for their purpose (based on their experience/test). They were explaining it in the parlance of the terms that MySQL and Postgres. If those are buzzwords, then MySQL and Postgres are both created using buzzwords?
Their explanation is not perfect (for me, why do their datamodel needs massive updates?). But I wouldn't write it off as buzzwords and dismissing Postgres because of data corruption. There are a lot of other things they were trying to explain there.
