Exactly, as I already mentioned - think of it as a build-in JDBC
provider that lets you query anything in one uniform way directly in
the language. Unfortunately a lot of people think of it as an ORM,
missing out on the fact that there's captured intent in an AST
underneath, which can be transformed and evaluated by any available
provider. A genius stroke by monad Meijer for sure.
