The way the lookup table works here differs from the previous implementation. In the previous implementation the usage of .lookup() meant that an existing table would be modified to fit the new purpose. That no longer happens in this version. Need to make a design decision about how this should work.

It should definitely be possible to use an existing lookup table - imagine a database where several tables have a "Departments" column and we want to extract all of those values out to a single shared "Departments" table.
