The database in a state where it’s violating some assumptions I’m making and I need to manually intervene without taking down my application for example. I need to have an audit trail on the changes being made to the database and who made them. I need to create replicas to implement failover. I need to replicate my application on multiple machines and all the replicas need to have the same view of the data. I need to mitigate the possibility of data leaks if I have multiple tenants sharing a database.
I’m not saying that you’re wrong for using it. I’m just saying that it doesn’t work for everything.
I typically run postgres locally too (in docker), while there’s still technically network overhead there’s not much compared to a real network, plus you can easily move it to another machine without reworking your app to switch from SQLite to postgres.

Proper = has actual admin tooling vs. just a file format.
