> Oftentimes, the reason for that is that 20 years ago stuff like Doctrine, Liquibase or whatever just didn't exist. Sadly I am talking about something written in Perl (blessed with ORMs since at least 2001) around the early-mid 2010s. Not a single reason it should have been written. The only thing it gave us over well established Perl ORMs were code that no-one understood, no support for that code, and a panoply of infuriating bugs that constantly broke production.
