The use case of accessing existing SQL databases was also discussed.
And there's no reason to believe no one will ever want to build a DB
application in Emacs Lisp, and no reason to leave that arena only to
Python, JS, and other environments that already have SQLite bindings.

So yes, potential use cases do exist where sqlite3 will be a bonus,
even before we consider Emacs-specific features that perhaps could
benefit from that.  I would even say that SQLite support is more
important than xwidgets, for example.
