This X 2. I feel all these people who feel anything else is a viable alternative to Elasticsearch have a dumb, simple, small-scale use case, where even full-text search over Postgres would suffice.

I have a search use case. I want to create a simple language model where each token in the lexicon gets a unique ID (or ordinal) that I can use to create a more sophisticated model where each document is represented as a vector as wide as there are unique tokens and use clustering and give each cluster a unique ID (or ordinal) so that I can create an even more sophisticated language model, one with built-in semantic understanding. A natural language data structure, if you will, with multiple layers. I want to store the entire WWW in such a model. So I'm building a language model framework that is not build on Lucene because I'm not obliged to use ES in that capacity.
I feel you are wrong to call my use case simple and small scale.
