Sqlite's dynamic typing made it a natural fit for using it with Python UDFs in madIS:

Absence of the feature would have complicated the whole "functional relational" [*] workflow that madIS uses a *lot*.

I am curious about the usefulness of sqlite's "unique" type handling, and
so would like to know if anyone has ever actually found any practical use
for it/used it in some project? I am referring to the typeless handling,
e.g. storing strings in integer columns etc., not to the non-truncating
system e.g. storing any size number or any length string (which is
obviously very useful in many cases).
Has anyone ever actually taken advantage of this feature? In what case?
