Neal Richardson commented on ARROW-13435:
-----------------------------------------
The other approach would be to deprecate `record_batch`. For historical
context, the constructor used to be called {{table}} (and there was also
{{array}}), which led to annoying packageStartupMessages.
> [R] Add function arrow_table() as alias for Table$create()

> In the arrow R package, there is a function {{record_batch()}} that is an
> alias for {{RecordBatch$create()}}. It would be nice to have a similar
> friendly alias for the even more commonly used {{Table$create()}}. Obviously
> we can't use {{table()}} for this, but how about {{arrow_table()}}?
