You cannot rely on that (the "the order in which rows were added" part). At
best it's an implementation detail.

If you want to guarantee rows are in rowid order, then explicitly ORDER BY
ROWID, and often this will be free indeed, but again that's an impl detail.

And there's no "meaning" that the order of rowids IMHO. --DD
