    Description

      CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 AS SELECT 1;
      SHOW CREATE TABLE t1;
      

      +-------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      | Table | Create Table                                                                                 |
      +-------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      | t1    | CREATE TABLE `t1` (
        `1` int(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |
      +-------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      

      CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 AS SELECT 1 UNION SELECT 1;
      SHOW CREATE TABLE t1;
      

      +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      | Table | Create Table                                                                                     |
      +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      | t1    | CREATE TABLE `t1` (
        `1` bigint(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |
      +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      

      Notice:

      • The first CREATE statement made a column of the int(1) type.
      • The second CREATE statement with UNION made a column the bigint(20) type. Looks excessive. An int column would be enough.
