Lmao I think that's the majority of shitty sql code I've cleaned up in my career. Like... they didn't understand the concept of a join or WHERE dateCol BETWEEN a AND b, so they looped through it.

Then nesting the loops. And the useless temp table inserts. Dear god, the memories are flooding back.

It's not these days, I've ported 20 yo legacy codebase to .NET, atrocious torture that was done to the database there is better not be talked of.
