Thanks for the compliment! It's becoming a habit with us and benchmarks. We just really want to dig in and understand what's going on and why things work the way they do. ;-)

There really are so many nuances and as we tried to say a number of times, ClickHouse is really great at what it does well. But it's still OLAP at heart (which precludes OLTP features many apps take for granted) and after enabling TimescaleDB compression, the query story isn't as cut and dry. We don't claim that TimescaleDB is the fastest in all circumstances, or that it absolutely has to be for every workload. Features and versatility play a major part in the decision.
