You won't be able to understand how the developers are abusing
your database without a good grasp of SQL. Learning anything that can
help you trace what's going on in the database is a good thing. This
includes things like tcpdump, dbg and strace/truss. It's good to know
what your db engine is doing both at the top level (sql) and bottom (c).
