I'm not sure that follows. The web2py DAL has a lot of features that might otherwise be found in an ORM. I'm not very familiar with SQLA, but I suspect the DAL has some features not present in CORE but similar to functionality included in the ORM. > But it also means something else - that saying that it's benefits are > questionable, is akin to saying that a 20k lines-of-code of the coolest ORM > in existence, is a useless-piece of software... > Anything is possible. Feel free to make the case with some real examples. You might also consider trying SQLA directly in place of the DAL, and maybe using something like WTForms if you need more forms automation.
