This is a great example of how some people will jettison good taste in favor of some pointless metric or supposed problem.

That's a problem generally, but not the fundamental problem here.

I don't like Lisp either.

Absurdly lazy reporting.

Companies pay their taxes until they become big enough to figure out how to avoid them. Problem?

If that's the only argument then I hope it passes. Why should some minuscule number of small businesses hold everything up?

Well, sure. Does that make stateless load balancers consistent, though? :) I just don't think the CAP terminology helps.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAP_theorem How does consistency apply here for example?
