In reading the 7.4.2 docs, the sql reference page for PREPARE doesn't

reference DEALLOCATE in any way. It points to EXECUTE, but not to
DEALLOCATE. Suggested fix:

... This also means that a single  prepared statement cannot be used by
multiple simultaneous database clients; however, each client can create
their own prepared statement  to use. The prepared statement can be
manually cleaned up using the DEALLOCATE command.
