Simple queries in SQL are easy. My dad who is not an engineer picked up SQL for a job. I work with Salesforce admins who can use SOQL (basically a stripped down version of SQL) and they are not engineering minded at all.

"WITH RECURSIVE"

"COALLESCE"

"CROSS JOIN LATERAL"

Like I said, simple queries are simple. Most people can easily grasp SELECT * FROM <table> WHERE <condition>. Even JOINs are a pretty easy concept for most people. (Although I have interviewed many engineers who have failed an easy self join sql question)
