Interesting.  I just edited sqlite.h in my fork, and it didn't recompile
the world.  So thanks for suggesting another reason why disaggregating
the sqlite junk from lisp.h is superior.  Why thread.h is included in
lisp.h is a decision that predates me.

Prestige?  The path we've chosen -- slavishly obsessing over a last-century
text editor fast becoming extinct -- is quite possibly the least
prestigious endeavor I can think of.  Affability is probably the word
you're looking for.
