Description

As was reported in #1055 (seemingly erroneously closed automatically), and detailed in surrealdb/surrealdb#4881, pre-computed tables - especially when using Group By - do not work. Given that, and the fact that it hasn't even received any attention, it would be appropriate to remove mention of them from the docs (and site, courses/university etc).

At the very least, their functionality should be tested and only the minimal functionality that works should be documented, with a note that they don't work with group by (surely the most powerful and useful of its use cases).
