I wasn't aware, but some developers do seem to be allergic to SQL at all cost and would go to great lengths to avoid it just because.

Wow yes. I just found this out recently, it's funny because Sql seems easier than most of the complicated shit a dev needs to deal with.

I think a lot of it is derived annoyance at database administration, which can't be easily automated or one-and-done. SQLite is by all measures a terrible database, but people use it because it actually bothers to solve the "lack of hassle" problem.
