   I understand your point, but i think in this case decision is good. We are 
in a "forward" looking project. There is little value in complicating our setup 
for "development" settings for RHEL7 case. RHEL8 was released in Novemeber 2019 
and while RHEL7 EOL is 2025, it will be only going down, never up. The overhead 
of installing and using latest SQLite version is so small that it is no worth 
to complicate our code to serve that code. 
   
   Besides, if that drives adoption of newer version of RHEL 8 for people who 
are stuck on RHEL7 - even by a fraction of a percent - I think this is a good 
karma that will return to us.
