Why Is SQLite Coded in C? (2017)
It's much easier to include C source code in an application than Ada.

Yes, but you don't want C if you choose Ada, no?

But sqlite is a dependency for many other applications, lots on platforms that probably don't have good Ada compilers, so sqlite wouldn't be as useful if it were written in Ada.
