Review comment:
       I think it is important to always be correct. If we want users to need 
to opt in, then we can add a configuration setting that must be supplied, like 
the dynamo table. If that isn't supplied, then loading the catalog fails with 
an error message. Then we know that the user configured a specific dynamo table 
and understands that dynamo will be used.
