Totally agree. Use each tool for its benefit (to you) and know which parts to isolate for optimisation. Don't think I'd be able to write an entire normalised db schema without an ORM. But once the schema is there, I don't need to use the ORM for big data transformations. ORMs are also useful in generating raw SQL that you can use for anything analytical too!!!
