This "but the blockchain" or #NotAllBlockhains is a silly petty argument that I don't have time for anymore.

So let's talk about the Tesco Blockchain. (1/)
A while back Tescos (i.e the British supermarket) did some misguided blockchain project involving tracking the provenance of vegetables from the EU. Was a terribly silly project that could have been done better other ways, but alas that's software. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (2/)
It consisted of a bunch of internal permissioned servers that would pointlessly replicate a bunch of data for no purpose other than to say "on the blockchain". It didn't really work, but neither did the project it replaced. (3/)
