And if everyone else jumped off a bridge, I mean, used raw interpolation for SQL queries, would you do it too?

Using raw SQL string interpolation doesn't get you anything much that you can't get just as easily with a parameterized query. In contrast, properly sandboxing agents is such a pain, and such a productivity drain, that hardly anyone does it in practice, save for a vocal minority online.

Don't worry, you can just use the automated approver to escape your queries! It's so secure!
