Isn't that the same reasoning as "I don't like using high-level languages because they limit my visibility of what's running on my processor"? Do you write all your code in assembly?

I think the issue is that if you don't understand what a high-level language is doing under the hood, then you will constantly be surprised by side-effects. You shouldn't be using an ORM to substitute for your lack of understanding SQL; you should be using it to automate tasks.
