I'm not doing SQL every day but i have rarely any issues with it.

Do we really need to do better than SQL? I don't think so and i also don't think that the chosen new syntax is better.

At the end of the day, most critical is not the language but understanding how it works to optimize indezes etc. If you are only able to write simple SQL because you are not good in SQL/Databases, you will not optimize your Database independently from the language.

If you are good in SQL/Databases, you (or at least i) do not care about syntax details; You just look it up, and get acquainted to your specific underlying Database.

I'm not doing C every day but i have rarely any issues with it.

Do we really need to do better than C? I don't think so and i also don't think that the chosen new syntax is better.

At the end of the day, most critical is not the language but understanding how it works to optimize assembly etc. If you are only able to write simple C because you are not good in C/algorithms, you will not optimize your algorithms independently from the language.

If you are good in C/algorithms, you (or at least i) do not care about syntax details; You just look it up, and get acquainted to your specific underlying microarchitecture.

I do see my comment in context of using SQL for your Queries while your main focus as a Developer (like for java etc.) is not writing SQLs as your main priority.

Also it does state 'we can do better than sql' and i do have a certain amount of practical experience to state my personal opinion that i do not think that their approach is actually better than sql.

They did show quite avg examples; Examples which are leading me to assume certain points like where they would like to replace sql.
