Yeah, it's a hard balance to strike. Having one tool to do it all makes training and support simpler and easier. But... if that tool can't do it all as well as a specific tool, then maybe it's not a good tradeoff to make.
I don't have a good answer, but in some cases just pure $$$ costs argues against going with more than one tool. Dunno... But getting back to the root cause, I think going with smaller datastores is the best track here.
