Show, don't tell. Also, it's a little shorter now.

BEGIN THING TO INSERT
=head3 On use of non-C<SELECT> SQL in C<select*_*> methods

While some drivers support statements other than C<SELECT> in the
above-listed convenience functions, others do not: driver support for this
facility is not defined by the DBI interface standard, and the C<do>
method is provided for non-C<SELECT> statements.

When you really don't know if the statement you have in a variable is
going to be a C<SELECT>  or not, you may unroll the process into
C<prepare>, C<execute>, and  C<eval {fetch*}>.
