I think you're wrong there. SQLite is a really well tested and (as far as I'm concerned) doesn't fall into the "hacky" category. It works really well for what it was designed to do. However, if you need to use it outside of its intended scope, I agree, it may not be a good fit. They even have a page where they describe where it might be a good fit vs using a RDBMS:
