Sounds to me like you're using RDBMS wrong.

Not that it necessarily relates to SQLlite, but I've seen this _many many_ times in real world databases in the banking industry.

Personally I don't like it and I am luckily not in IT, but as an analyst I have seen many weird database structures. One can only imagine the business requirements that gave birth to some of them.

To quote a solutions architect to the head of marketing in a previous job: "You asked for a monster, you got a monster."
