Expensive in what way? Memory/Compute? It can't be licensing money since SQLite is public domain.

raphaelj is probably talking about classic database machines like PostgreSQL and MariaDB.
In my view, storing blobs in sqlite doesn't have a huge disadvantage tied to it. Sqlite grows pretty linearly and as it stores the whole db in a single file, hosting provider doesn't even have to know about you using it.
I'm just comparing the per stored GB cost of on demand database services vs on demand storage services.
