>- refactor "broadly" (say, "rename all variables to match the following style" or "turn this class into a dataclass like XXX" or "transform the SQL queries into builder queries using XYZ"). Often requires some manual work but it gets a lot of tedious stuff out of the way

Can you go on more about this, please? This sounds, frankly, heavenly, but the second sentence gives me pause. I guess it's not necessarily a question of how reliably it can "broadly" refactor but rather how broadly "broadly" is meant to be taken...

>- generate SQL queries at the speed of mouth

...and this? I'm not really a database guy, but I do keep hearing from them about how (eg, a database guy's) stateful knowledge of a database can result much, much more efficient queries than eg a sales guy with a query builder. Are the robut's queries more like the former or the latter?
