This is my own bias on exhibit. We have a web development group (front
end, yeah?) and they do their UI / UX thing completely independent of
the database. When they need something, I write them a stored
procedure. We cooperate on the interface, but I don't know how it will
look when they're done, and they don't care how normalised (or not) the
stuff is in the database.

Right. So in your case, you have some coordination between front-end
and back-end development, and every time you make a custom stored
procedure, you're increasing the coupling between the front and back
ends.

With so many layers of computing and networking in today's world, I
think the thing the article calls FDA is more like one end of a
spectrum, rather than a demarcated category.
