Since everyone is offering what they think the "camps" should be, here's another perspective. There are two camps: (A) Those who look at performance metrics ("96 cores to get 240MB/s is terrible") and assume that performance itself is enough to justify overruling any other concern (B) Those who look at all of the tradeoffs, including budget, maintenance, ease-of-use, etc.

You see this a lot in the tech world. "Why would you use Python, Python is slow" (objectively true, but does it matter for your high-value SaaS that gets 20 logins per day?)
