I'd adjust that wording slightly, because "we can always replicate to
..." sounds a bit vague, and saying that an option is set or not set
could be misinterpreted, as the option could be "set" to false.
How about:
- If "publish_via_partition_root" is true for a publication, then data
is replicated to the table with the same name as the root (i.e.
partitioned) table in the publisher.
- If "publish_via_partition_root" is false (the default) for a
publication, then data is replicated to tables with the same name as
the non-root (i.e. partition) tables in the publisher.
