The thing is, letting the system handle it isn't good enough. We have decades of research into this stuff, so 90% of the time the database gets it right - but the interface for explicitly taking control when the DB gets it wrong is black magic at best. The value of having an exposed representation of filtering/joining/aggregation in a general-purpose programming language where you can interact with it is big enough to outweigh that of a database that can do it for you most of the time. |
