The way you're talking about this is simplistic. To have a reliable datastore you need to know not just fsync exists, but a lot of specific details in exactly how you use it, and what you can and cannot count on. There's a lot for you to learn here if you care to look a bit deeper than "oh, just uses fsync, boring".

That's why I took the time to read the docs and the source code. Because I was interested in how SQLite provided the guarantees that it does and what the limitations of those guarantees are.
