When you already know there will be just a single result it is OK to call an
API function that does an unnecessary loop just because it's an API

Wasn't it you, who complained about programmers who just follow their

One of the major needs is performance and this doesn't allow unnecessary
stuff.

BTW: What about introducing exec_SELECTgetSingleRow() ?
