Also not mentioned is that it is available under a public domain license and
hence anyone has the right to use it in any way they deem fit, make changes,
distribute changes, charge anything they want, keep everything public,
private or anything else.  Some of the alternatives are open source but more
restrictive (GPL).  I've never read the Oracle license agreement but there
are many claims on the Internet that its license agreement forbids
publishing of benchmarks!

Many of the feature requests are ultimately asking (or hoping :-) that
someone else will do the work.  If something is that important then it isn't
unreasonable to pay DRH and team to do it.  They also provide support:

Note "modest fee"!  The extensions are also very cheap and liberally
licensed.  No matter how you look at it, SQLite is a bargain.
