No one _should_ do that, but that's a common enough problem (that usually doesn't get found until code is running in production). I suspect with the rise of vibe coding, it's going to happen more and more.

Sometimes it's forced by using the wrong database in the first place, or the wrong data structure. It can be less pain to do a bit of post-processing in the application layer than to unpick either of those.
