---------------------------+---------------------------
User struggled writing a point-in-polygon query. Initial google search was
"postgres select points by extent". It brought user to ST_Extent, and
later ST_Within.
Instead:
- it should have brought user to && which should say word "extent" more
- ST_Extent should have example to &&
- && should recommend checking if ST_Intersects is fine too
