Perhaps it's the whole mindset. Why even use that when you have perfectly fine built in mechanisms for SQL parameters for over a decade? I wouldn't even start writing a query like that.
You can do stuff like that too in a .Net / SQL stack for example (or in Django) but somehow everybody defaults to Entity framework or similar solutions that take care of it.
I'm way too lazy to deal with lines and lines of sanitizing, raw queries and mysql_blahblahblah anyway so I write wrappers that give me the results from a query and a bunch of parameters in one line. Secure. Simple.
