Postgre is still better than MongoDB so I am okay with this.

Every. Every single project. Who could have predicted our data would become relational?

100% accurate.

As somebody reducing mongodb at work: postgres first would have saved so much trouble!

You might have be doing something wrong then. MongoDB handles relationships just fine, just because your data has relations doesn't mean that it needs to be stored in tables. In fact, a graph database does relationships even better, but we don't use neo4j for all our apps, do we?
