[CT-1141] [Bug] docs - minor clarification/correction

[andy-clapson]

Is this a new bug in dbt-core?

• [X] I believe this is a new bug in dbt-core
• [X] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug

Current Behavior

very slightly misleading docs when new demo project set up, coming from here: https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/blob/7239ffe41dfe743d1117adab5cebe75740335e89/core/dbt/include/starter_project/dbt_project.yml

Expected Behavior

That the examples are accurately described - it's just that the models are built as views, but docs say they are tables.

Steps To Reproduce

init a new demo project, or just look at the /starter_project/dbt_project.yml

Relevant log output

No response

Environment

@andy-clapson thanks for opening.

Is there a link to a URL with the misleading docs that you could provide?

Depending on where those docs are located, we might move this issue over to the https://github.com/dbt-labs/docs.getdbt.com repo.

[andy-clapson]

for sure - it's this: https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core/blob/7239ffe41dfe743d1117adab5cebe75740335e89/core/dbt/include/starter_project/dbt_project.yml

The guide on the demo project, just correcting a typo here. So I guess not really docs maybe? Sort of an in-between.
