I get this, but personally I love using jOOQ because of how composable and dynamic query building is with a good query builder pattern. Adding optional filters, joins etc doesn't turn into a string-concatenation abomination; it's something. can do in native readable Java (and then translating back to generated Java objects is also great compared the alternative of unpacking some generic result set, casting to the right type, etc)
