I can see the improvement of their EdgeQL over SQL... But (as I haven't read of their blog posts) I am a bit more reluctant about the whole thing when they describe it as an ORM. Can we leave the ORM and take the query language and implement this as a Postgres extension?

Exactly my question. If improving on SQL also means that I have to throw out all the maturity of Postgres, it's very unlikely to happen. But if you can define a new query language that can be implemented by existing relational DBs, you might actually have a shot at displacing SQL.
