Apparently it did lie, bc I was able to write objects to that table

SQLA typically does various stuff with table names, uses a lot of
aliases etc. (well it has to considering potential conflicts) so I
wouldn't be surprised if other DBs don't have smth like function or
table 'user' available globally everywhere, so SQLA author had to do
some PG-specific hack around that.
