I don't.  Just like I don't want to disconnect my engine from my car.  
However, I want the car designed such that the engine can be 
disconnected.



I don't want to replace the DB, I just want it to be replaceable.  This 
just makes for good modularity, and good testability.  I do not want to 
sacrifice any of the power of the DB, I just want to place the code 
that uses that power in a place that the rest of the application is not 
directly aware of.
