The GP seems to have a quoted a commenter in the SQLite thread, who not a maintainer or a representative of the community. The actual maintainer wrote:

> This bug in prior versions of SQLite was unknown to the developers. If I had known about it, I would have done something about it. I probably would have tried to preserve the buggy behavior - to maintain "bug compatibility". But I didn't know.

That comment is much more patient, and less easily misconstrued by drive-by commenters.

The person you responded to also didn't claim it was the maintainers who said it. This passer-by is still user-hostile and may still infuriate the person submitting the ticket who are trying to get their stuff to work again.
