If you can show me a database that can do reasonable queries on a
hierarchy, I'll agree with you.  A tree-based structure is one of the
relational models' boon.  Duh, that's common knowledge.  But, to
seriously think that you can use a relational database like this..

Thing -> relates_to <- Thing

...is absolute folly.

Nice, succinct post by the way.
