An ORM requires a query builder. A query builder alone is not an ORM. I don't think we need/want a complete database-ORM, but a query builder is very valuable to have.
I know what you're saying, but a single query builder doesn't seem to suffice. You need one for mysql, postgres .. etc.
forgot to mention that something as seemingly trivial as join tables can required different sql. Think someone brought up a point about the new version of postgres requires casts when the datatypes used to join are different.
