That's happening wherever decision making guys just follow the popular
names (like MS, IBM, Oracle and so on), no matter the real
functionality and cost (and many other facts). The best we can do
about this is to make Firebird more popular (like MySQL, Firefox).
There will be always peoples that do not think - they just follow the
flow of the day.
