What I personally dislike about it is, for the easy stuff, I'm not sure it really saves that much code over a micro-ORM like Dapper, and for the hard stuff, well, everyone's a Linq wizard already so they're tempted to use it, especially if not in the habit of writing much SQL. With today's tools you can even get Intellisense on inlined SQL queries. Also the lazy-loading and the in-memory provider for tests are both kind of misfeatures.
