Please have a read over the threads at
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2020-March/060584.html
and  https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2020-May/061162.html

All your issues were discussed at length in those threads -- so
there's lots of background info there. Suffice to say, as you've
realised, many of the issues are still outstanding and yes, geopackage
can be a pain (a nightmare?) to use for some workflows.
