A "renamed" table is not a "newly created" table. Which is it?

Can't you just test it? It is really a simple task ...

All I rename does is change the name of an object. All linked objects (constraints, indexes,...) are still linked to the original objects since they are linked using the object id# not the actual name.

Of course it does NOT rename all the constraints however they are still being applied against the renamed table.
