I don't see any problems with people waving the FLAGS of their favorite programming languages. The more FLAG waving the merrier i say, and people will get to see the many languages being used by the users of SQLite! This is a wonderful venue for freedom of expression and exchange of points of view on the different programming languages and SQLite!
