I personally loved these functions in Drupal 6. It was a clean and simple way to query the database and get back what you wanted in the format you wanted it in. These were removed from Drupal 7 in favor of DBTNG which was a huge hit to developer experience.
Is there any reason we can't add these back as wrapper functions?
