It assumes that everyone has infinite time, energy and brain capacity to learn endless redundant tools just to "use the right tool for the job" rather than "use what you actually know". I know PG. I don't know SQLite. They are very different. So obviously, I want to use PG.

Maybe this would provide something in between. I have not used it, but it sounds interesting. Based on SQLite engine and uses the Postgres SQL parser. Lots of built-in functions appear to be the same or very similar to Postgres.
