I can't speak for him, but I can speak for myself.   ORMs only get you  
so
far when it comes to maintaining databases schemas in production
environments.

A production database often has to be up 100% of the time.

During an upgrade there is almost always a period where two versions
of the application are using the same database.  In these cases the new
schema has to support both versions application versions.

There are often schema entities outside of SQLobject's purview that have
to be maintained.   Among these are grants, users, triggers, and stored
procedures.

Data has to be transformed from the previous schema to the new
schema.

The changes have to be reversible so that database can be rolled
back in case of deployment failure.

All of this has to be done while the database is live.  The simplest
way of doing this is a series of SQL patches which are applied to the
database.
