Here's why I like it:

- Dependency tracking

- Not just views, but tables, and incremental tables

- Testing framework

I've worked on a few data teams that have all been "copy/paste SQL from GitHub into the Query Editor" and it's (obviously) pretty bad. DBT is super low-lift and professionalizes your data pipeline basically instantly.
