While that's an unfortunate discovery, I do need to point out that that's a problem of your own making, not SQLite's fault. SQLite is very clear on what you can expect, with dynamic typing being one of the main differences between it and "regular SQL" databases. Yes, plenty of folks just go for SQLite blindly, but the consequences of that aren't SQLite's doing: if you take the time to read through https://www.sqlite.org/features.html https://www.sqlite.org/features.html because you want to know what it can actually do, you'll almost certainly click through to https://www.sqlite.org/omitted.html https://www.sqlite.org/omitted.html because you'll want to know what it doesn't do, and then you'll see the "See also the Quirks, Caveats, and Gotchas of SQLite." link and you're going to follow it an read through https://www.sqlite.org/quirks.html https://www.sqlite.org/quirks.html because those sound pretty important to know about before you commit to using something that is going to be your application/service data store for the foreseeable future.
