Quite so. But that is not the only way to (partially) skin that particular cat:
. tabstat mpg, stat(mean sd min max) f(%9.2f)
variable | mean sd min max
-------------+----------------------------------------
mpg | 21.30 5.79 12.00 41.00
------------------------------------------------------
Admittedly it doesn't work for confidence intervals, but it does for any statistic that tabstat can produce.
