IMHO, a minor issue in the doc. As a good practice we use TEXT data type when we expect longer text e.g. comments, doc kind of columns.

Who is we in this conversation?  If it’s the documentation please reference existing work.  Text is our preferred type and we are fairly consistent in using it to my knowledge.
