ISTM that correlation names aren't allowed after joined tables in the
first place.

<table reference> ::=
<table name> [ [ AS ] <correlation name>
[ <left paren> <derived column list> <right paren> ] ]
| <derived table> [ AS ] <correlation name>
[ <left paren> <derived column list> <right paren> ]
| <joined table>

<joined table> ::=
<cross join>
| <qualified join>
| <left paren> <joined table> <right paren>
