Why do we still have this redundant table separation?
This ugly 90s era relict was a result of the module split,
but given that arbitrary base chain creation is now exposed,
it is no longer necessary. (It was not really necessary
before either, but that is how things grew in the past.)
Don't carry over 90s mistakes.
