Why are you linking it to a third party site.
If you want to be critical, it’s the stupid statements and interpretations people make from the comparisons. Like the Perl guy coming out of the woodwork to point out how we’re a bunch of idiots for not seeing the beauty of the Perl oneliner. Or how it demostates that Go doesn’t need generics and how JS web coders aren’t real developers.
Compare "SELECT * FROM TBL1" with what you would need to do in an imperative language.
You would have to open data connection, set up data structures and have to specify step by step what you want. Even if you had libraries doing most of the work, you would still need to specify step by step what you want to be done. Whereas with SQL, you specify what you want and let the language/interpreter/optimizer/engine figure out the rest.
That's only considering "number of characters". Now if you measured "executable size" or memory size or any other impact, it might be different.
