You're being downvoted, but you're not wrong. Here's another benefit to just using SQL: it's cross-language, cross-framework, cross-decade. So "select firstName from users where id=?;" works in 2024 with Go, JavaScript, etc., but it also worked in 2010 with Ruby and 1999 with PHP.

Every time you switch languages, or stay in the same language for 2 years, you have to learn another ORM. SQL is about as close as timeless gets in this business.
