Well, I must admit that I liken it to developing against Standard Edition, or MySQL, or some other product – the feature set is a bit different and you need to bear that in mind. While that can be frustrating, I consider it something that is known up-front. I don’t see much of "That thing is gone", and that even deprecated items don’t disappear for a very long time, for fear that someone’s code might break.

There’s always WASD Federation to can help you with scaling or moving to a VM install of SQL hosted in Azure, but Microsoft’s knack for "Whoops, that thing you’re using, yeah that’s gone. Sorry!" or lack of certificate management that causes outages is annoying.
