I've got nothing against SQLite. But I am unhappy with the idea of us
recommending *any* particular bit of software that is not under our
control, especially in a document that is as widespread and hard to
update as our FAQ. There are any number of scenarios where we might
want to take back such an endorsement, but once made it'll be out there
somewhere on the Web until cockroaches rule the earth. There is also
the whole class of arguments about "why'd you recommend X and not Y?"
that we'd surely get sucked into. Better not to go there in the first
place.
