That sentence builds up on the previously mentioned sentence about types.

> It is “weakly typed”. SQLite calls it “type affinity”. Meaning you can insert whatever in a column even though you have defined a type. Strong typed columns are opt-in

and then I call it

> I hate that it doesn’t have types. It’s totally YOLO

That's simply self-contradictory, as written. You say that it has (opt-in) types, then say that it doesn't have types. You could say "I hate that it doesn't have types by default", but it would be even more accurate to say "I hate that it doesn't enforce types by default", since it does have types, both strict and not.
