Review comment:
Yes, it was intentional. I think it is much better to have a consistent
output format for `desc formatted <table> <column>` like commands, showing the
same table all the time, explicitly showing that we don't have statistics for
the column, instead of showing the smaller table as if a `desc <table>
<column>` command would have been executed. The previous form is only
implicitly showing that there are no statistics, which can be misleading.
