Opposite experience here. Most places of size I know of shove weblogs into SQL, S3, or some Hadoop infra.

Yeah SQL tends to be the lingua-franca for "big data" tools - so while logs usually won't be loaded into a regular MySQL/PostgreSQL it's pretty common for them to be made available in something like Hive that allows them to be analyzed using SQL.
