No, probably not, but SQL and ORMs aren’t used just for consumer grade applications ;)

I’m sure N+1 is not a big problem in those use cases, but saying that thereforr the problem doesn’t exist is overgeneralizing a bit. B2B is not a small market.

I don't believe I said the N+1 problem doesn't exist. I said that I believe it's "overblown". I'll grant that's vague, and I can be more precise, but one thing I mean by "overblown" is that it's not necessarily a big problem in all cases, even if it's sometimes a problem in some cases. I definitely do not mean that it's never a big problem in any cases.

Anyway, it's cool. No worries.
