Ok, but "some" isn't even "many", and the core reason why the single-file problem doesn't go away with sqlite

Instead the new solution must be dumb-cloud-friendly any rely on multiple files, and definitely split all the pdfs and icons away from the few kilobytes of actual user passwords

True, but it’s a start.

Splitting the file into pieces is certainly not the right way to go about it though, as you would just be poorly emulating VeraCrypt! The most robust sync solution is an actual protocol (like Bitwarden), otherwise dumb file syncing is going to have the same issues it usually has.

Veracrypt is a single file container, did you mean Cryptomator? And how does a protocol help with a dumb cloud with local file access? You'd still need to define a local scheme
