Maybe a metaphor would help.  By granting access to the database,
you have given the user access to the building.  Picture a building
with one key for the front door, a different key for each floor,
and a different key for each room on each floor.  By granting
access to the schema you have given the user a key to the floor.
Granting access to the individual objects in the schema is like
giving them keys to the individual rooms on the floor.  You haven't
done that yet.
