Pavel is not wrong. SQLite is not buggy. Your expectation of what it should do 
is at fault here.

I used to think as you too, but then learned otherwise. The developers simply 
didn't add the code to dependably determine what the column should be called, 
because, surprisingly (or not surprisingly, if you think about it a bit), that 
code would be very complex to cover all the possible cases. The simplest 
solution is to depend upon AS aliasing, else, do something undependable (to us).
