"Oh no, we don't need to worry about any sanity checks in the database, that's all taken care of in the javascript frontend"
I didn't come up with that, but it's the same logic. Actually expressing something like it in a professional setting could get you fired.
Not in the games industry, though.
Because there is a reason nobody does that serverside. Programming games and programming a service are two different beasts.
Most other industries don't expect millisecond response times.
You take longer than that in an action FPS game, your game is fundamentally broken and unplayable.
