Because I have the feeling (back me up on this people) that most people
who use it still want to be able to read their table definitions while
working in \x mode. Who on earth would want \x to affect their table
output??
Also, it doesn't affect the bit below the table, like indexes and
constraints, so you have this wacky column output, then perfectly normal
index and constraint display!
