You can certainly write an application, placing your SQL calls, HTML
layout, and everything else all in the same files, ignoring security
problems, and skipping documentation, much, *much* faster than you can
create an application that considers security issues, best practices,
well-documented code, etc.
Well, except for the documentation, I'd disagree with this.
Maybe a little faster, but not a lot. If you always do XYZ to sanitize
your data and make your SQL calls, than it really won't be any different
than always doing something else.
The biggest problem with that approach is the many cooks syndrome. One
guy always uses one library to sanitize data, another guy uses a second
library, than a third dev comes along and uses a third library.
The code keeps bloating because each person has their preferred
method(and this assumes they have sane libraries that don't conflict!)
