First, nobody thinks that knowing ORM's query language absolves one from knowing SQL.
But the main issue is that Go SQL interface SUCKS. It's verbose, hard to use and is difficult to integrate with additional tooling (try adding generic tracing support, I dare you!). So often your SQL code is hidden in reams of wrapper code that sets arguments and reads the results. So even simple ORMs that allow mapping of result sets to objects help to reduce boilerplate clutter. More advanced ORMs also offer simple type safe queries: https://github.com/go-reform/reform It's still nowhere close to LINQ for C# or http://www.querydsl.com/ for Java, but it's getting there.
