yes, PostgreSQL's and Oracle's approaches IMHO both make perfect sense in their own way, depending on your design
philosophy.I never said otherwise. I just said that I hate to debug invalid objects in Oracle because Oracle does not
clearlyshow dependencies and reading source code can be hard, especially if the author was one of those genius
generatorswhich produce tons of code.
