What gets me is that some people seem to ignore the very real cliff of complexity that ramps up the moment you move to eventual consistency. If you need it you need it, but you have to bake in those assumptions everywhere - and they commonly break the default assumptions of those who don't have a bunch of experience with it or haven't architected their approach to work around those.

And in many cases it's those architectures that force more complexity and make it appear like they have much bigger challenges then they do. Great for resume driven development, but often you can get away with far less.
