The core message of this article seems to be 'developers who don't know how to use ORMs properly can really mess things up'...
Sure. The message is that developers can really mess things up with an ORM.
Like Circular Saws, ORMs are great tools in the right hands, Like circular saws, the consequences of using them wrongly are difficult to put right.
The danger is in thinking that the use of circular saws means you can hire less skilled and trained carpenters!
