I use a lot of JSON columns w/ SQLite and find a programming language type is a great way to specify schema for such a column without having to write any migrations. No one has written a sternly worded comment at me on the internet yet for adding or removing fields from my struct types without writing a separate migration file.

Lots of use-cases for SQLite are not like Big Iron SQL Database Of Record where every change must be tracked because it's a shared stateful single point of failure and there's hell to pay for mistakes or confusion.
