I am puzzled by this statement:
Tables using on-demand mode support all DynamoDB features (such as encryption at rest, point-in-time recovery, global tables, and so on) with the exception of auto scaling, which is not applicable with this mode.

Does it mean auto scaling is no longer needed, or it won't happen in this mode (some hidden fixed capacity?)
