I think there’s a big lesson to be learned here: in 2026, if I were to launch a database product that is a hash table with a single lock in front of it, I’d do it quietly. Because cutting corners when launching a database product has been proved to be a viable approach (I wouldn’t do it myself, but MongoDB did it with great success). But as soon as the product catches on, if it does, you need to rush to pay back the technical debt and the reputational debt. A marketing video with laser beams and a “bottle of tears” makes this much more complicated.
