No, that isn't what I proposed exactly.  It is what you read into it.  
The query need not be rewritten if the structure is sane to begin with. 
  If precious MySQL is the favored one, we say Drupal SQL uses its 
syntax structure.  Everything else then is slightly slower because the 
string needs parsed to syntax manipulate the string.  And if done 
correctly the parsed string is cached so that it doesn't have to 
reparsed.
