In what cases have you found it worthwhile to use pandas?

Resampling, regularizing, binning and forward/backward filling time series data is an absolute pain in the ass using only SQL and/or vanilla python. It does its thing well, there.

(Note that in general, I'm the biggest pandas hater I know)

It can be nice for groupby-aggregate logic. And it feeds into plotnine.
