    > SQL is a perfect language for analytics.

    Slightly off topic, but I strongly agree with this statement and wonder why the languages used for a lot of data science work (R, Python) don't have such a strong focus on SQL.

    It might just be my brain, but SQL makes so much logical sense as a query language and, with small variances, is used to directly query so many databases.

    In R, why learn the data.tables (OK, speed) or dplyr paradigms, when SQL can be easily applied directly to dataframes? There are libraries to support this like sqldf[1], tidyquery[2] and duckdf[3] (author). And I'm sure the situation is similar in Python.

    This is not a post against great libraries like data.table and dplyr, which I do use from time to time. It's more of a question about why SQL is not more popular as the query language de jour for data science.
