 Review comment:
   The check is basically replacing the null check but provides more context. 
   What would we do if `tableEnv` is `null`? Do nothing? Throw an exception? 
What  would be the error message? By checking for the type of the root node of 
the logical plan we know why the call would not succeed and can give an 
appropriate error message. 
   
   We could of course also pass `null` as configuration and check for it to be 
null in `insertInto(String, QueryConfig)` but I'd consider that as an invalid 
use of the interface that should also result in an exception.
