I'd also add, that I looked at this while working for a bit in C#. The biggest difference is in the reason it exists. Databases like MySql and Firebird etc exist to create full databases with certain limitations depending on your requirements, but full databases none the less.
M'Soft's SQL Express exists to sell SQLServer - no other reason. It is therefore made with the idea that developers will at some stage reach the point where they will have to purchase SQLServer in order to continue developing.
