The PNG format is specifically designed to allow software to read the parts they can understand and to leave the parts they cannot. Having an extensible format and electing never to extend it seems pointless.
If you've created an extensible file format, but you never need to extend it, you've done everything right, I'd say.
My first try would've been to copy the db file first, gzip it and then transfer it but I can't tell whether compression will be that useful in binary format.

For legacy systems, especially ones in which a lot of the things they do are because of requirements from external services (whether that's tech debt or just normal growing complexity in a large connected system), it's less useful.
And for tooling that moves fast and breaks things (looking at you, Databricks), it's basically worthless. People have already brought attention to the fact that it will only be as current as its training data was, and so if a bunch of terminology, features, and syntax have changed since then (ahem, Databricks), you would have to do some kind of prompt engineering with up to date docs for it to have any hope of succeeding.
