There are two ways to understand your reply, one is that you're talking ORMs that provide query building as an alternative to writing raw SQL. The other is you're talking just about the deserialisation into structures.

If what you meant was the first one then, no I'm not expecting anything like that. I honestly like using a language that gets off of the way and let's me focus on what I want to build. I've done very little OOP and I've written a lot of Rust. There are many situations where I feel like r rusts verbosity is limiting my freedom but the grind of unmarshaling hashmaps into structures is way too much for me. Why shouldn't I want to use my languages typing support to help me write more maintainable code?

I can hardly get over how dart sometimes outright refuses to cast Object types to dynamic types without some syntactical voodoo.
