SQLite the only database you will ever need in most cases

> In contrast to many other database management systems, SQLite is not a client-server database engine, but you actually very rarely need that. If your application software runs on the same physical machine as the database, which is what most small to medium sized web applications does, then you probably only need SQLite.
Disagree.
If you think about it from an attack surface perspective, there are numerous advantages to isolating the database. There are performance, availability, sharding, and columnar options out there also that may better meet the use-case (just to name a few). I have ran Postgres on endpoints when developing with performance akin to SQLite. Further, there are numerous ways in which to increase performance, availability, or to pursue some of the more customized versions of Postgres depending on use-case. One of the times I used Postgres was with Oracle DBAs, and they found the transition pretty simple.
Various customizations / extensions / versions of PG
