Nope. Pretty much covered everything in a nutshell. EJB entity beans are one of the most deranged, stupid, moronic ideas ever, in the history of IT. They represent a regression in good programming practice and data management of around 30 years. Only the "brilliant" minds who thought out EJBs could have come up with something as awful as them. Says a lot for the quality of the rest of the implementation, really...
