Do you think that could be clarified in the documentation? I'm not sure how best to define it so that it is understandable to the general user, but something needs to be clarified, as I didn't understand it after reading the help in Base. Perhaps something like: "a table view is essentially a query that you can use in another query". Also maybe a link in the contents labeled table views that points to queries designer as they're essentially the same.
