Just to nitpick, the article says aggregates have been in SQL for 3 or 4 decades, but SQL wasn't an ANSI standard until 1986 (28 years ago, almost 3 decades.) I get that a language exists before it is standardized, so were aggregates in SQL in the 70s/ early 80s or is this just a hyperbolic statement?
