In a lot of cases using SQLite means you write queries incompatible with RDBMS. No need to worry about race conditions or the amount of queries you make, when 100 selects are uber fast.

Yes, for very small or embedded, single-purpose systems sqlite is usually a good choice. It's very well tested, and there's nothing extra to run or manage. But be careful if the system starts growing beyond that, you'll want a real RDBMS before you abuse sqlite too much.
