Ihe, a more serious answer to your comment above.

XQuery was designed and adapted to query XML (together with XML Schema and the 
rest of the XML world, etc, etc)

JSONiq was designed to query JSON, and only JSON.

======

Unlike them,  PythonQL is not attached to any particular data model or data 
format. I can query anything that can be 
represented in the Python structures, e.g. tables, XML, JSON.  It’s not data 
model specific.

What those three languages have in common is the use of the semantics of the 
FLWOR expression (not the syntax!).

The FLWOR expression is a general purpose data comprehension programing 
paradigm, not related to any data model or 
data format.

 SELECT-FROM-WHERE in SQL is just a simpler case of FLWOR expression. 

Best regards
Dana
