JPA does preDeploy with DatabasePlatform and changes this to the real platform in deploy. usePlatform ends up getting used on login, which copies over all state from the old DatabasePlatform. If the new platform has different defaults they will be ignored. I found this because the defaultSequence gets copied over, preventing the platform from giving a different default than table. I fixed this by ensure JPA does not access/set the defaultSequence so it remains null. But other properties such as binding, trimming, etc. will not allow a platform to use different defaults.
