Why not do the search and replace in the database (I mean that's one reason for
using a database in the first place)?

Largely because that involves writing complex queries, which takes time and is subject to error, and because there is no undo, and very few of the other features that make BBEdit so popular wherever good computers are found. I guess that something more sophisticated will come along sooner or later, in the meantime the export-import suggested by many is the best solution, though rather a slow one in our case.
