Isn't Django the one embeds its logic into the names of keys in the arguments list? That might actually be worse than Laravel Eloquent's abuse of magic methods. Way back when I was doing Python, I was using SQLAlchemy, and I recall the design was much more sane.

It’s basically a configuration language you learn. But you get to write it inside Python instead of some yaml file or whatnot.

I think it makes sense for something like Django where a lot of people are doing the same basic stuff a lot. So it works and somewhat justifies learning some special language.

But you can also just not use it.
