More like the SQLite docs made an assumption and people, maintainers and users, didn't realize it until later.

- o11c 3y agoBecause when you explicitly document "if you do this, it will fail", and people's code doesn't fail, they assume they must not have been doing that. Especially remember that most people don't care about opening files in text mode vs binary mode. This is only more true in a UTF-8-only world.
