At which point there’s little difference from any other database’s backup commands.

I don't think you can install "any other database" by pasting one file in a direcory somewhere? Even if you can produce such a backup with the same command.

  • Pretty much every embedded database since about 1988 has worked like that.

    You say that being an embedded database isn't the main selling point, being contained within a single file is. But that's a completely normal feature of an embedded db, to the point that the one implies the other.
