It's another layer, you don't have to use it. If you pretend schemas don't exist you basically never know they do, unless you go looking for complexity in the postgres bowels.

To be honest, it's better to think of MySQL db = Postgres schema, because I'm MySQL you can do cross db queries and there is no intermediary schema level, and in Postgres you can do cross schema queries, but not cross db queries.
