Can we edit this page to make it clear that maps can't be published with a default_public API key please?

https://carto.com/developers/cartoframes/examples/#example-publish-public-table-visualization

Asking because the current language is confusing to users:
https://github.com/CartoDB/support/issues/2418

Let me know if Support should do a pull request, I'm happy to if we need.

Hi @ztephm, what do you think about this?

This example illustrate how to publish a visualization using a public table. Using public tables does not require to create Maps API keys to visualize them on a notebook. However, you need an API Key to publish any visualization, whether the data used is public or private.

Do you think we should add it somewhere else?

Sounds good @elenatorro - I made small edits:

We do already say this in the Guides section, so I think we don't need to add it in a third place at this point:
