They are making a decent decision. SQL is a *fucking terrible* language, which I don’t blame them for not wanting to learn.
The whole industry, programming languages, infrastructure, everything would have developed differently if relations were a natural, pleasurable thing to use in any programming language. Like an Array, or a Hash.
