Please elaborate. MySQL and Postres perform at generally the same level. Robustness is debatable with each project having it's own target. Common sense changes person to person. He should choose the SQL database that fits his needs the best, by exploring his options, not taking the opinions of a postgres enthusiast.
I'm not recommending MySQL in this post. I choose the tool best for the job I'm doing. He should do the same.
