two reasons to use cfqueryparam
1. type safety and quote escaping for input variables to a query
2. performance for a query repeatedly executed
doing some is ok for 1 alone, but all required for the query to be able to be re-used (2). though different databases result in varying degrees of results perf. wise for parameterised queries anyway so often benefit is negligible. but if your query was in a loop you would probably see a benefit
