No, you weren't coming off as arrogant. My apologies if my reply, specifically the statement about humility, seemed that I was implying such. 🙂

What you stated is really my point, we become "specific" in our knowledge of SQL Server based on where we work and how the technology is used. If indexed views aren't part of your normal development cycle then schemabinding wouldn't be something you were familiar with. There is a lot to this DBMS and there are few places that use it extensively. If you can find a place that does, it gets really exciting. Even then though, there is always more to learn.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
