Okay.  So CouchDB requires intentional data entry and uses that to figure out 
conflicts.  So if user1 thinks a price should be 2 dollars higher, and user2 
thinks a price should be 3 dollars higher, neither of them can enter the new 
price into the system, they have to each enter the price change, and the system 
has to figure out whether to increase the price by 2, 3 or 5.

Except that there's no language provided to figure out the '5'.  So it has to 
be done by your language.  Which is the same problem SQLite has.  So CouchDB 
has no advantage here.
