> Since we have read.df, read.json, read.parquet (some in pending PRs), we have table() and we should consider having read.table() for consistency and R-likeness.
> However, this conflicts with utils::read.table which returns a R data.frame.
> It seems neither table() or read.table() is desirable in this case.
