Please don't blow things out of proportion.  No one is stuck with
anything.  Emacs can be compiled without sqlite3, and v29 is still a
very long way before a release, so we have a lot of time to study how
useful is this and decide whether to make it the default etc.  This is
development, so please let us do our job and develop Emacs as best as
we can.  I assure you no one here wants to do any harm to Emacs, and
your opinions and the opinions of others are heard and taken into
consideration, even though we don't always agree.

I don't really understand the attitude.
