here's my standard answer to developers who try to tell me how the database should be designed:

which part of the word "No" don't you understand?

The DBA should know best how to use the abilities of the database. I can understand that with 3rd party applications, which have been coded to be database "neutral", you might have to bend some of the rules. For home-grown apps, you can and should enforce the database specific options.
