close(database) on delete???

Why are we not calling close(database) on the delete function? Was this left out intentionally? If so, can someone explain why we aren't closing after opening?

It's usually for the best to close what you open. My stored code for this course does has the close(database) call at the end, so it was either added in a later video or I just automatically put it there.
