Not only five philosophers, but five forks too.
The solutions here are very much about moving the complexity out of
the application and into the database, which is fine if your database
can handle it. It doesn't *remove* the complexity as such, it just
means that you can stop worrying about it until your database servers
die, which in your average web app probably won't happen.
