I think the term bronze age development really does sum up writing t-SQL, there are some tools which are starting to emerge and get better but the tooling is a long way behind that of c# or other languages.

A big issue for me is debugging, with SQL server you can step into a stored procedure but can't see the contents of a table, want to check the results of a cte?? Add an additional select and run the cte twice in your procedure!
