I went down a rabbit hole one week trying to figure out if there was a simple pathway to making a JSON-like format that was just a strict subset of SQLite file format. I figured for read-only workloads, like edge networking situations, that this might be useful. There's a lot of arbitrariness to the file format though that made me quickly lose steam. But maybe someone with a more complementary form of stubbornness than mine could pull it off.
