Review comment:
       1. doesnt matter; if that will be a performance bottleneck later we will 
handle it - but as it is now; it only adds complexity/reduces 
readability...this stuff works incorrectly because its too complicated already; 
it would be better to stop add twists...
   2. add a parameter to the rpc call and pass the value of 
`hive.create.as.external.legacy` over to the transformer so it will be able to 
handle that as well.
   3. can't we keep a full table object in the `ctd` instead of just some parts 
of it? could that help overcome that issue?
