To be fair, Postgres uses TAM internally, so there is at least one complete and up-to-date real-life example. Learning curve for TAMs is indeed steep, and I wonder if we could do a better job in this respect e.g. by providing a simpler example. This being said, I know several people who learned TAM successfully (so far only for R&D tasks) which indicates that its difficulty is adequate. -- Best regards, Aleksander Alekseev
