Several of the mysql schema creation scripts refer both to InnoDB and MyISAM for TableType.
I can understand this division of labour in a production model but in development and learning environment it is handy to have the tables in the same place and format. Just less variables to ponder on.

MySQL is such a flexible DBMS that it is possible to switch any table from one type to another 'on the fly', so the fact that the create table scripts specify one particular type should not be a problem. Some developers like to use INNODB tables because they support database transactions, while others do not care. It is a matter of personal choice, and the framework will deal will whatever choice you make.
