Redeploying Without Dropping
When updating or redeploying an existing User-Defined Function, the `CREATE FUNCTION` statement will fail if the function was not explicitly removed using `DROP FUNCTION` beforehand.
Conflicting Naming Conventions
Poor naming practices or lack of awareness of existing UDFs can lead to accidental attempts to reuse a function name that is already defined globally on the server.
