Django is made by people who definitely don't know what they're doing. https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/MultipleColumnPrimaryKeys Open the index to any half-decent database design textbook, look for the term "overlapping foreign keys" and learn why surrogate keys are a non-starter. One answer to the subject line would be: Learn to judge the competence of people by asking a few "litmus" questions. The above mentioned issue is one personal "litmus" question I ask anyone who pretends to have a clue of database design and database applications.
