Agree but that isn't the way it was presented.
I almost wrote "each table is treated like a
subdoc" but realized that most people don't get
that.
Still, what one gets is tablename.columnname
instead of
http://www.something.com/dontDereference/:name
and the trouble starts when the mysterious and
very overloaded uRthing has a findItSomewhere
but don't dereference this to get it semantic.
So I'm still left wondering which of the
notSoSimpleItTurnsOut things we Dare To Do Less of.

No, it is saying that each table is a namespace.
