Yeah, perhaps "the only way it should be" was a bit too strong a statement.
I was assuming his application was nowhere near the scale of a large
enterprise system, and so my intention was to emphasize data integrity by
binding such logic to database events.  Perhaps I'm mistaken, but it didn't
sound like he was talking about anything requiring a separate business logic
tier.
