I would consider those "query builders" rather than fully fledged ORMs.

Yeah no. A micro ORM still expects you to write the full, raw SQL.

The raison d'etre for a micro ORM is to capture the results of that SQL query into a simple, flat collection of objects in a way that has a better UX than your framework's default behavior.

Micro ORMs are the perfect middle ground for debates like these.
