I understand if it's a prototype, I have seen developers of even mature products follow this mentality that they want the DB to be portable. It's insane. The reality is that rarely happens and when it does its mostly cause your business is growing. But not knowing (or caring to know) the features your DB offers you and not exploiting it is just laziness.
