Solution

Since you are using HANA, it's SQLScript, so:

CREATE TABLE TYPE is a deprecated syntax for registering table types.

CREATE TYPE is a new syntax for defining table types. As already mentioned, table types do not have an instance, it's like a template for future use.

As for the table in the picture, I think it was given to specify differences in an old and new syntax in a nice way.
