or "repeat", as in, we're asking them to do it.

I think as long as there are no errors to say table yNNNNmNN does not
exist between all the example there, it's probably fine. I do see the
trigger function example doesn't contain all the tables that were
created, but I think that's fine. Making that example longer to fix
that wouldn't make it any more readable. I don't think we promise
fully working examples. IMO, they're aimed to be a guide for learning.

I'm happy to review a patch.
