SQL Antipatterns, Volume 1: 5th normal form and compound key (page 333)
You say that the DB is in the 5th normal form if it does not have compound PK.
But in the solution tables you still have compound keys (bug_id, assigned_to) and (account_id, product_id). Are these not counts as compound keys?
First Post!

Yes, the table in this section has a compound key. A table with no compound key is implicitly in fifth normal form, so that would not be a good example of a table that needs to be fixed to satisfy fifth normal form. The first paragraph should be more clear that only a table that needs to be fixed is shown.
