To clarify the clarification, “SHA256” and “SHA3-256” are not the same thing, 
though they are sometimes confused.  “SHA256” should only be used to refer to 
the 256-bit variant of SHA-2, which like SHA-3, was standardized in several 
variants with different hash sizes.  Thus drh’s choice of terminology: 
“SHA3-256”.
