I would argue that its actually a multi-tiered question where the choice isn't really "NoSQL or RDBMS" but "NoSQL or ORM talking to RDBMS or going straight to RDBMS"
Here, the naive developer uses MongoDB as an all-in-one that rolls in the part of ORM that too often gets sole consideration, 'How do I persist my objects?', and effectively ignoring everything else. Try as I might to eloquently phrase my frustration with this all, it usually ends up in a rant against those relying on automagic who don't feel the need to understand every decision being made for you.
