Even with SQL we recognize that while aggregate roots and ORMS are great for storing and editing single items, they're terrible for use cases where the data is _used_, and you're better off using different query mechanisms to slice it in a better way. Indexing services and caches and transformation pipelines continue that.

I think CQRS is really just a glimmer of DoD in the enterprise world, the recognition that the system of record is generally a terrible resource for actually using the data, and that you need to rethink everything again if you want a performant system.
