Kusto, the Azure query language for data analysis uses that form with piping as well.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/kusto/query/?view=microsof...

Also the LINQ approach in .NET.

I do agree, that is about time that SQL could have a variant starting with FROM, and it shouldn't be that hard to support that, it feels like unwillingness to improve the experience.

I love working with KQL, it’s a very expressive query language.

Kusto is so much vetter than it has any right to be! Normally I'd run a mile at a cloud provider specific programming language that can't ve used elsewhere, but it really is quite nice! (there are some wierd quirks, but a tonne less than I'd have thought)
