Hi Steve,

beside what I said in my last statement, you should also
have a look at

    https://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html
    https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html

This may help you to understand, how SQLite handles specific
data types, that might be understood (or at least be handled)
different than in other DB engines.
