Review Comment:
   On view creation comments will be inherited from the table. After that, the 
comments will either keep that value or get the new value set by user. So if 
user doesn't do anything related to comments, comments will just stay the same 
as they were during view creation.
   
   If everything is the same, **redo** will not even be triggered on `SELECT`.
