To many people "SQL" in the name implies "big databases".  I know from
personal experience at work.  The powers-that-be didn't want to support
another database server (we already have Sybase) and didn't want our group's
experimental data "polluting" the production database, so the folks who
wanted it went the SQLite/pysqlite route.  They were immediately bitten by
the multiple reader/single writer limitation and they tried to cram too much
data into it, so performance further sucked.
