The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/18/queries-table-expressions.html Description: I have a question regarding: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/queries-table-expressions.html#QUERIES-FROM Is the following sentence from the docu correct? "Instead of writing ONLY before the table name, you can write * after the table name to explicitly specify that descendant tables are included." I read it like you can use "* after the table name" instead of "ONLY before the table name" which seems wrong. Thanks Jochen
