What about the following info in the manual p. 55?

"Add a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE key to the table and use this. New in Version
3.23.11: If the PRIMARY or UNIQUE key consists of only one column and this
is of type integer, one can also refer to it as _rowid"

Isn't _rowid some type of internal variable?  What is its exact purpose and
significance?
In other words why did the designer of mySQL bother naming that specialized
column as such.

Thanks for comments.
