In SQL as you've said, nullability is explicit. It's arguably the wrong way around (i.e. NOT NULL rather than NULLABLE), but it is explicit. I feel the issue comes from the intersection of languages without explicit nullability and their data storage techs; removing that explicit typing from SQL doesn't fix the issue.

(I feel you agree with this btw, just being explicit)
