I was poking fun at people who say SQL doesn't scale when what they really mean and don't realize is that normalized schema doesn't work at large scale. I agree that you pretty much have to shard data and "join at the app level" at sufficient size, but the definition of "big data" changes every day.
10 years ago 1T would be "big data" whereas today, 1P would be "big data". I'm waiting for the time when you can get 1P ssd drives for your laptops :)
