We have 800 tables in the database. Are you seriously suggesting that
we should add 800 views only because it's difficult to change column
order? That is definitely not going to make developers less confused.

Of course, it does not mean that it is useful to you. But just because
it's not useful to you, there is no reason to try to cram down your
opinion down their throats. It's not at all helpful to tell people
"you don't need that". If you believe that Surya could solve this under-
lying problem in a better way, you could ask for the reason, to be
able to address the problem. But dismissing his question out of hand
is just plain insincere and about as impolite as my response.
