Yes, ok clear. If the system underneath behaves "different" then, well,
we're lost anyway.

Ok.
I'm asking as I was looking at some application using SQLite which
executes an explicit sync() after each query it executes. I'm not a
database expert but I always thought that the whole idea behind
databases were that you could rely on, well, the whole ACID idea. And
I'm very happy to see that SQLite does so!
