You probably did not need to interface different data "stores" ranging from excel up to DB2 and create ad hoc selection results. Rapid turn around in interpreter, easy OOP to build a fwk of similar query attributes, easy scripting via command window, output options for any target from flat file over excel up to direct inserts into DB-Backend...
And yes, integrated data engine helps a lot.
