PostgreSQL vs SQLite #3235

This is a question in regard to the design decision making process.

It seems to me that the storage and retrieval of translation memory data is a rather simple and straight-forward process without the need to manage complex transactions and/or employ specialized data types. (Correct me if I am wrong.)

Why settle for PostgeSQL when the lightweight SQLite would suffice?
