In my observations, ORM use has a perspicuous relationship to piles of arcane spaghetti code.

Not to mention, 50%+ of ORM managed DB schemas that I've observed don't have proper constraints, indexes, relationships, etc. Because the developers using the ORM think it's a magical tool that makes understanding SQL and relational databases optional.

When you give an object the power to access to the db, you invariably end up with db access everywhere you can pass that object.
