> I still write and think in SQL, but don't have to write queries as strings.

Why is that a benefit though? Why would I rather learn some custom query builder-specific DSL when SQL is at least mostly standardized pretty much everywhere. The use of template strings in JS can get rid of all the problems of just plain string concatenation for SQL (e.g. it can prevent SQL injection, enable safe dynamic queries, etc.)
