    GTFS DuckDB (gtfs) registers GTFS transit functions at LOAD and exposes explicit dataset lifecycle pragmas:
    PRAGMA gtfs_prepare, PRAGMA gtfs_init and PRAGMA gtfs_refresh. Loading does not create or reset tables.
    PRAGMA gtfs_import('feed') reads a GTFS folder and builds every table. Spatial geometry functions need the
    spatial extension loaded. See https://github.com/gabrielAHN/gtfs-duckdb for the function reference.
