It's correct the way it appears in the documentation: Python distributions 
include SQLite.  But it's in passive voice, which this generation of grammar 
teachers seems to think is bad, for some reason.

By the way ... support call in Scottish accents:

Techie: Technical support, may I help you ?
Caller: AR DINNA WANNA BUY A SNAYYYYYYK
Techie: I'm sorry, Sir ?
Caller: AR DINNA WANNA BUY A SNAYYYYYYK !
Techie: Erm ... are you having trouble with your computer, Sir ?
Caller: Aye !  Yurrrrrr prrrrrogrrram !
Techie: Yes, sir ?
Caller: It sayze "Python required to rrrrun scrrrript."
