No, what's pointless is the typical Hadoop workload. Sure there are some people who need it but I'll wager they're not even 1% of the people using it.

The point of the thread is that there's still no easy scale-out solution that has come along for relational databases to provide for data that typically gets put into proprietary data warehouse or hadoop installations. Citus data and memsql might get close but the whole industry is still far behind where it should be for this.
