Review comment:
       I prettied this up a little bit, since we're using it in a bunch of places. But just a suggestion. No need to change:
   
   "If you want to peek at a large dataset, consider using  :func:`ib.collect <apache_beam.runners.interactive.interactive_beam.collect>` with ``n`` specified. If you want to find the N largest elements, consider using :meth:`DeferredDataFrame.nlargest`."
