It seems like their point was to criticize people for using new tech instead of hacking together unscalable solutions with their preferred database.

That wasn't their point. Instead of posting snarky comments, please review the site guidelines:

"Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize."

But honestly, isn't that the strongest plausible interpretation according to the "site guidelines" ? When one explicitly says that the one camp chases "buzzwords" and the other chases "common sense", how else are you supposed to interpret it ?
