-------------------------------------

{quote}how would you suggest to rephrase it, so it is more accurate in your 
opinion?

Yeah, I think blindly removing it isn't great. What about..

"This is important in HBase as there are limits to the number of Regions which 
HBase can manage. Limiting the number of tables can help limit the number of 
Regions in a cluster."

>   has the following misleading statement as HBase scaling is not limited by 
> number of tables but rather number of overall regions.
> "The standard SQL view syntax (with some limitations) is now supported by 
> Phoenix to enable multiple virtual tables to all share the same underlying 
> physical HBase table. This is especially important in HBase, as you cannot 
> realistically expect to have more than perhaps up to a hundred physical 
> tables and continue to get reasonable performance from HBase."
> This should be revised to state:
> "The standard SQL view syntax (with some limitations) is now supported by 
> Phoenix to enable multiple virtual tables to all share the same underlying
