Most databases that I've worked with that need to stand up to any real load do end up getting fairly denormalized. So a database might contain multiple data silos. A job is a job and data is data. Attacking the interface doesn't seem entirely fair. SQL is used with a good number of non-RDBMS. Should it really matter if my interface is a QBE JSON document, a JavaScript function, or a SQL procedure? That seems like one of the least important concerns.
