Description

NativeParquet is implemented as a [file format](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/Synapse/blob/master/SQL/Samples/LdwSample/SampleDB.sql#L146), but when the view parquet.YellowTaxi is created, it refers to [FORMAT='PARQUET'](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/Synapse/blob/master/SQL/Samples/LdwSample/SampleDB.sql#L172).

There does not seem to be a reason for it to exist, and it confuses the reader, when they are trying to get up to speed with using the platform.
Is there any benefit to creating a custom file format rather than refering to 'PARQUET'?
