A good tool ltries to be "bette"r, not "easier". Libraries compiled from C are compatible with C++. In general optimization is better with C compilers and the support libraries are more compact and effcient. Producing Sqlite in well written and documented ANSI C was a very sound decision.
If you want to incorporate Sqlite in a C++ environment use C++ wrappers for the API calls.
