Most developers I know aren't writing any SQL, and if they are, you might (not necessarily) have an even bigger problem[1].

ORMs are a valuable abstraction. It's no good to go about your coding life without a care in the world for SQL, just because ORMs exist, but it's even worse to write an app littered with SQL, which is a language most likely entirely unrelated to your app.

1. I audited a code base for a friend a few weekends ago, and it was littered with SQL injection vulnerabilities, because the developer didn't like ORMs.
