Description

re: ``` the TPC mapping strategy creates a denormalized SQL schema - this is one reason why some database purists are against it. ```

imho this phrase unnecessarily separates a team into purists and who knows what else;

typically at these kinds of discussions everyone is being paid to be the smartest person in the room
i would hate for someone on my team to feel silenced for fear of being branded a purist/non purist for taking positions on matching class inheritance to database table design strategies.

thanks
