The relation creation is done at executor startup, however the main
regression test suite is lacking scenarios where no data is inserted
which is something that can happen when using EXECUTE or EXPLAIN with
CREATE TABLE AS and WITH NO DATA.
Some patches are worked on to reshape the way CTAS relations are
created, so this makes sure that we do not miss some query patterns
already supported.
