I think here applies very well this quote: All right, but apart from sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system and public health, what have the Roman (SQL) ever done for us?

No one disputes that SQL was first on the scene, we’re disputing whether it can be improved upon and whether the value derived from relational databases is a product of SQL specifically (hint: it’s not).
