I understand your concerns, GosuTeacher. However, many modern ORMs allow for the execution of custom SQL queries while still maintaining entity tracking and management. This offers us flexibility for complex cases without losing the advantages of the ORM. The key is to use this feature wisely, ensuring that complex operations integrate well with the overall data management. This way, we can enjoy the best of both worlds: the simplicity of the ORM and the precision of pure SQL for specific needs.
