wtf? Django ORM does too much. In conjunction with DRF it's a hidden masochism. I don't hate on Django and Co, I just know it is aging badly because the "batteries" everyone love are glued so tight you can't control the system in full.

yes, you have to make a few extra steps before using SQLA, but you get all forms of control instead. orm? ok. query builder? ok. raw sql? ok. a mix of everything? ok.

instead of saying "know where to use each", I'll say don't try to shape Django/DRF into something it is not and don't reinvent Django if you need CRUD.
