I have a fairly custom SQL query, which  probably *could* be written
with findAll(), but would involve unpleasant contortions.

I figure this is why the cake developers provided us with query() for
the complex stuff, while letting us unload the easier time consuming
stuff on findAll().

My question is: what am I losing out on by going with a custom SQL
query() instead of the findAll()?

Thanks.
