That argument appear to be conveniently ambiguous (work should be offloaded

architecture and make decisions about where work should be processed based
on good information and clear thinking?

It's also possible that they take the a similar view as Henrik.

I understand that different people will have different priorities. People
divide into different camps, and take different positions. I don't expect
everyone to agree.

The JS guys control the client and can make changes there.

I get that.

All of the various DB providers are beyond their direct control.

Could you clarify what you mean by DB providers? And who are you referring
to in the phrase "their direct control"?
