The Sqlite manifest typing integrates nicely with scripting languages which use similar strategies. Where such integration is not required and there is a well defined application such as an embedded system, particularly with a slower processor, a static typing model would be advantageous in

When I modified Sqlite to block type conversions my memory of it is that the changes were quite simple and easy to implement. You could log the change events with a handful of patches to Sqlite. It would be an interesting exercise to analyze the impact of the conversions. On an aside I

I made some changes to Sqlite to stop the automatic type conversions. The performance improvement was not significant. My reason was not to avoid the performance overhead but to prevent the use of floating point where it would raise precision problems. My suggestion would be not to worry
