This is exactly the case where the user SHOULD use
#+PROPERTY: header-args:sqlite :db <FILE>
to avoid mistyping <FILE> across their SQLite blocks.
[Hence, defaulting to ":memory:" would NOT hurt.]
Org is primarily about INTERACTIVE use, not batch processing, so I think
it would make sense to match the usefulness of the official INTERACTIVE
SQLite shell, which defaults to in-memory for good reasons.
