I agree.

Another fortuitous quality of SQLite for Schemers is that it's not
strict about data types. Table rows store dynamically typed values, and
the column's SQL type is just a hint for implicit type conversions.

Had no idea about that. They've added a lot of features.

There's now a "server-process edition" as well:

Not quite sure what that means specifically but people are raving about
it: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17766799>

Also, more fsync() goodness in that thread :) I'm so glad it's not our
problem anymore.
