You'll see this kind of fun in other databases that support "persistent connections." When you start up, you have absolutely no idea what the state of the database is. If a previous process errored out, you might find yourself in the middle of a broken transaction for example. Did the last session do some weird SET magic to make things work? Did it create temporary tables? Well guess what, it's all still there!
