Can you restore a DynamoDB table using point in time recovery if it the table is deleted?

I have enabled the point in time recovery on my DynamoDB table. Will it be possible to restore my table if the table itself is accidentally deleted?

It seems point in time recovery only protects against the deletion of the table items rather than the table itself.

As per AWS documentation, an accidentally deleted table can still be recovered with point in time recovery enabled.

If you delete a table with point-in-time recovery enabled, a system backup is automatically created and is retained for 35 days. System backups allow you to restore the deleted table to the state it was in just before the point of deletion.
