Ok, look, I disagree. I'll let you try to reconcile yourself about why "Mozilla developers are a bunch of hypocrites". I presented to you a very straightforward explanation that does not imply bad intent from an entire group of people. I am sorry that this explanation does not fit your world view. To me, what you say is the equivalent of saying « assembly is higher level than JavaScript because someone implemented a virtual machine that runs assembly code, in JavaScript in the browser ». Just because someone at Mozilla used this technique for some technical reason (it is indeed often easier to emulate low level stuff on top of high level stuff, rather than the opposite) does not change the fact that IndexedDB is an API, is not built on top of SQLite, and is lower level than any API based SQL.
