No.
I can’t see why. DQL is a pretty good language. But it doesn’t have “automation” or create a CRUD logic for you. DQL is no different from Cypher, MYSQL, Mongo, REDIS or any other. It is a Database language. I’m not sure what you seek. If you need this kind of thing, you should use GraphQL. DQL is more robust in terms of “bulk searching and dealing with data”. If we try to pivot something else with the lang, this will plaster the language and lose perf. As much things we add(drag), more we lose.
So, what your team thought that DQL was? just to be in the same picture.
Why you can’t use it in prod?
Okay, sure!
