No, believe me, I'm sure it's me, as I always feel a little stupid about this stuff, and just need to dig into the docs to ensure I understand the usage of defaults. Given the fact you, Mladen, and Nuno all seem to have a handle on it, I'm sure I just need to invest the time to get up to speed.

This would make sense for the original partitions at creation, but I don't understand why a split (which effectively adds a new partition P4 in my example without a tablespace clause) doesn't go into the "default" USERS tablespace (whatever that means).

I'm not sure what "original partition" means in that case? What if I created two partitions in two different tablespaces "originally"?

I'll dig into this and see if I can figure it out.
