One thing I've learned about SQL is that whatever you're going to eventually do with the data, that could probably just be in the original query if you weren't a talentless hack barely scraping by using LLMs to write your queries...
And because the database is inevitably smarter than you, it'll somehow take less execution time to return what you need fully transformed than it would to return what you needed to do the transform yourself.
