This kind of doctrinaire thinking, this sort of broad and bold declaration, is the stuff of high-traffic blog posts but not good advice for real world developers.
Django, just as an example, does a magnificent job with its built-in ORM. Millions of developers use it, and they are not all fools. A fool is someone who would set out to build a simple-to-intermediate CRUD web app by writing SQL.

SQL works great for simple-to-intermediate CRUD web apps too.
I love Django’s orm. I wish Django would publish its orm as a separate library. Every time I see a flask / sqlalchemy app I think to myself: Gee you could have saved at least 2x the keystrokes if you’d just used Django.
