There are also a whole school of people who believe that dynamic typing as used in SQLite is far more productive and results in less code. For example the Python programming language is typed in a similar way. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_typing There are many sites with many discussion threads containing opinions, anecdotes and evidence and code supporting all the positions on this issue.
