> {{LoadIncrementalHFiles}} and {{ImportTsv}} will create a table with the
> default setting when the target table does not exist. I think this is an
> anti-feature. Neither tool provide a mechanism for the user to configure the
> creation parameters of that table, resulting in a new table with the default
> settings. I think it is unlikely that the default settings are what the user
> actually wants. In the event of a table-name typo, that means data is
> silently loaded into the wrong place. The tools should error when the
> destination table does not exist.
