Spot on.

Mind you I don't think you should try ANYTHING for the first time on a production system. (Say, how does this drop table command work ?)

And if the Oracle manual tells you not to try it whilst under time pressure, does that mean that if the topic appears during the OCM exam then the correct response is NOT to do it because you are under time pressure ?
