Most "programmers" just can't understand relational databases and SQL. It's too hard.
I've seen things you wouldn't believe. Random deadlocks in multi-billion transaction reporting systems. Atomic transactions split into multiple commits in banking applications. Copying rows between tables instead of setting a flag on a row. All because highly paid programmers are scared of RDBs.
