Nice to see some new initiatives in this domain (or old ideas resurface), but there is a long way towards mainstream adoption IMHO:
* My business clients and I speak SQL together. I don't see them learning a new language. I don't have the authority nor any will to force them to.
* I can spin up a container for testing business rules logic (and often share the results back to the client: here is what the impact of updating rule A is, rows of type W will be affected in this way).
Even though SQL has ceremony/verbosity, I'd rather see the standard be evolved. My clients and I could pick it up more easily.

That's great for BigQuery though. You can't spin up a BigQuery docker container anyway, and testing with another schema/project is risky while you have interns around.
