That isn't really an extensibility argument. At least not in my mind.
Further I don't know of anyone that can "easily" do it. You either
suffer the possibility of catastrophic data loss (dolphins) or you
suffer guaranteed bank account drainage (Oracle), or you suffer the
willingness of Monopolies (MSSQL).

None of those equate to "easy".
