> How would I know its outputting the correct SQL? If you mess up joins you end up with bad output.

The generated SQL is output in sq's logs, when logging is enabled.

If I have to go look at log files to see if the intermediary tool is doing the right thing, I might as well just write the SQL myself, right? jq has more use cases dealing with JSON that could come in handy. sq seems to handle trivial use cases but for complicated data models its going to be a hindrance.
