I think this is the most reasonable take I've read and encompasses the whole "right tool for the job" mindset that I like.
I've found that when starting a new project I get paralyzed with coming up with the perfect data model that will also scale in the future, so I'd rather punt, take the tradeoffs that come with schemaless DBs, and keep a plan to migrate to something like Postgres in the backlog. Holding on to our tools too tightly is IMO how projects get crippled.
