True, but SQL is (for better or worse) the de-facto standard query language for relational databases. The alternatives are all very niche.
I would like a better alternative, but it would need some very significant benefits compared to SQL to gain any traction. SQL is just so entrenched at this point that even NoSql database engines are adding support for pseudo-SQL query languages (which is really the worst of both worlds - the clunkyness of SQL syntax without the power of the relational model).
