Procedural language fanatics have been trying for years to overturn the best declarative language for relational data.

That would be the domain of logic programming languages like Prolog. SQL and its dialects are more for very specific and restricted applications of relational calculus, not general languages for expression of relations, conditions and categories.

PRQL is declarative. They are just heeding the maxim "If it's broke, fix it".

Typing fields before table name is like the least bad thing about SQL and doesn't need fixing.
