Hi Keith, I don't understand completely. So we agree that +c0 has no affinity. However, you argue that c0 has BLOB affinity, if I understood correctly. Why is that? I'd assume that it has TEXT affinity, since the table column is declared as TEXT. Since applying TEXT affinity seems to be lossless, I would expect it to be performed.
