Sure, this avoids issues with SQL injections. However, I have a hard time imagining any developer who would both make such fundamental errors with f-strings currently and also switching to this option when it ships.

Seems like a self selection which renders this meaningless, to some extent :/

Eventually, you won't be able to pass a string into the commonly-used DB libraries.
