Reply to comment by flabberghaster in ORMs are weird sometimes by musou
yeah most of the ones i have used do have the ability to execute raw SQL queries, which is how i solved the problem i had the other day. but you lose a lot of the benefit of using the ORM in the first place, you usually have to handle query pagination, input sanitization, and casting the response (which usually comes back as a 2D list of primitives) to the appropriate data structures yourself.
and just as bad, the code now has inconsistency in it. i never feel good about doing the same thing two different and incompatible ways.
