I absolutely believe that at the moment - Qdrant is clearly a fantastic piece of technology.
But if I was using Qdrant myself I'd treat it like ElasticSearch - I'd denormalize some of my data into it, but I'd still do most of my work in the relational database and treat Qdrant as effectively an external index for my stuff.
Maybe I'm getting hung up on the world "database" here as indicating that you use that instead of an RDBMS, when actually everyone selling a vector database expects you to use it as effectively an external indexing mechanism instead.
