I personally would not make this choice for new projects. I only use technology that is appropriate for the domain I'm using it in. Although, I am hoping this trend encourages better tooling and more modernization of SQL. As others stated, my concerns are primarily that SQL lacks a lot of general-purpose language features (modules, namespacing, composability, no easy way to debug, etc.) which seem to be ideal for writing applications. I would be interested to see a project written with PL/Python + PL/SQL stored functions in Postgres. PL/Python functions would be the interface between API calls and the database, and SQL would do what it is currently designed to do: straight-forward data manipulation.
