> Operations like "delete namespace", with the force flag set to true, and "offline namespace", first operate on all the tables they contain. These introduce a lot of complexity and concurrency issues that are difficult to reason about and explain via simple API calls, which could result in unexpected behavior for users.
> These features aren't needed for an initial implementation, and don't add significant value to warrant their risk at this time. Users can use the basic operations already provided ({{namespaceOps.listTables() + tableOps.delete(table)}}) to achieve more predictable behavior in client code, where actions are more easy to reason about.
