I wondered something similar about sqldf, because at one point my brain just seemed to work better "in" SQL.
The biggest issue I found was that sqldf was significantly slower than dplyr and other alternatives.
I started trying to mess about with something I was calling sqldf2. Didn't get very far, but there is some perhaps somewhat useful benchmarking in the R script here:
