> the huge majority of ORM-driven queries are "select * from table where id in ..."; for the queries that are more complicated than that, then yes use SQL! That's allowed!

The issue is, your lowest value queries are always this type, then you get the 10-20 in any code base that are 100x more complex, and they are the ones your end users care about the most.

You end up with a 80/20 principal in the wrong way, it's great at producing queries that represent 20% of the value of your app, and awful for the 80% that define the core value of it.
