   I think that your own questions about concurrency prove this
incorrect.  If you need high concurrency and you don't like retries,
SQLite is not the database for you.

If you require ACID type data integrity and have a single disk there is no such thing as a "high concurrency database". They all share a single disk resource in some way. With Sqlite it is up to the designer to build in concurrency and that cna be done by single streaming. Better performance is achieved by using a single database connection so that cache hits are maximized.

If your design is such that you never get a busy then you have an effective allocation of your disk resource. Using mutexes between threads and semaphores between processes gives you that capability.

To my mind the only time you should use the busy logic is when you are working across a network with shared files.
