// generated package unless an override names a type of your own:16
// store.BoatStatusMoored, and a Valid method. Every column and parameter of the enum17
// takes it, in models.go, in Params structs and in Row structs, as ListBoats shows. Valid18
// reports whether a value is one of the labels, and the server still enforces them, so a19
// status outside the enum is refused when the statement runs.20

// For a type of your own, here harbour.Status with a method that describes each label,18
// - section has no override, so models.go declares store.Section, with a constant for22
// name it with a go_type override. BoatsWithStatus does that for one query with19
// each value, such as store.SectionFish, and a Valid method; ListMenuRow.Section,23
// sgl.column(status, go_type: ...); a types.overrides entry in sgl.yaml, naming the enum20
// AddItemParams.Section and ItemsInSection's parameter are all a store.Section;24
// type boat_status or the column boats.status, would do it for every query, and for the21
// - sgl.yaml's types.overrides names the enum type item_status, so every column of that25
// parameters bound to the column too. A query's sgl.column override changes only that22
// enum gives menu.Status, as in ListMenuRow.Status, and so does every parameter26
// query's returned column, so AddBoat, SetStatus and BoatsWithStatus's own parameter23
// compared with or assigned to one, as in SetStatusParams.Status; the generated27
// still take the generated store.BoatStatus.24
// package then declares no type for item_status;25
// - sgl.column(section, go_type: ...) in ItemsInSection gives that one query's returned26
// Section the type menu.Section; the parameter it compares with stays a27
// store.Section.28

// An enum sorts in the order its values are declared, not alphabetically, so ORDER BY30
// section lists fish, then sides, then puddings. Valid reports whether a value is one the31
// enum declares, so the shop can check a section before it binds it. DuckDB checks each32
// value against the enum as it is stored as well, so a section the enum does not list is33

}Go type differences
The same SQL types map to different Go types, because each database reports them differently.
