Probably because altering a table is done by changing the value of column SQL in table 'sqlite_master'.
Adding a unique constraint requires value checks.

This is mainly for my curiosity.   Is there any particular reason that one

they would all have unique values by default.

Any insight into this would be great.  Perhaps there' something obvious I'm
missing.
