What I tried to point out it complicates the schema-update step a lot. Lot's code as stored procedures was counter productive at least in my experience. Several blog posts (post mortems) mention they avoid stored procedures as much as possible. I would debate that a "serious project" changes the code language at all. Even the old rusty SAP only switched from ASM to C and ABAP and reverted their Java misadventure. And Microsoft's products are still 90+% ASM, C and C++ code
