It allows you to use the console in webadmin, or the shell to try your queries before actually using them in your application. Also, we want to be easy to use from other stacks - .NET, php and non-JVM Python comes to mind. For these users, writing a client lib will be much easier since we accept queries in string form. The language doesn't stop the query builders though - it's part of my todo-list already. If you don't want to parse a string, you shouldn't have to, that we can definitely agree on.
