"alternative" implies that this is either on a comparable level of battle-testedness and feature completeness as sqlite, or that it solves problems that sqlite has, or that is delivers substantiable, or at least noticeable advantages over sqlite.

So, which of these points apply?

perhaps instead of `successor` you could say `rust fork` or `alternative`. Successor implies the original is dead or deprecated, or no longer going to be used, which is very far from the truth.
