> What does this prove about SQL being inferior to other languages

My point is that I think it is inferior for general application/business logic programs. For queries that filter large datasets to small result sets, SQL is probably better as it has the built in indexes and query planner (plus ACID).

I am pointing out that the current environment (better text editors and package managers) favours general languages, so they are a better current choice (to use in combination with SQL) over just writing everything, including application logic, in SQL.
