Developer here. There's a few features other than the query stuff that I still think are pretty handy.

The "sq inspect" stuff isn't easy to do with the standard CLI tools, or at least wasn't when I started working on sq back in 2013 or so.

I also regularly make use of the ability to diff the metadata/schema of different DB instances (e.g. "sq diff @pg_prod @pg_qa").
