Imagine you are trying to duplicate a table but succeed halfway only?
More importantly all catalog changes are transaction safe in postgresql. Not
only tables, but indexes, views, functions, triggers, rules and schemas are
transaction safe as well. IMO that's a big feature list..

First of all it's not RDBMS. Any product that exposes details of underlying
storage mechanism can not qualify as RDBMS. Innodb only has transactions..
Wow..
Secondly it's not enemy. At the most competitor if you in business of selling
postgresql and an overhyped product overall..
Just my opinion..
