  • Thank you for the post, very interesting one.

    I could imagine someone wanting to have a staging table with "dynamic" columns that can be added or removed depending on the information. This seems like POS, but I'm sure someone can come up with this idea.

    Most of the time, I couldn't find any use for a table with a single column either.
