I think deferring the advance call like this is fine and harmless, only because this DoubleValues "caches" the result for the current doc, so its idempotent anyway.
Yes, about "advancing all the operands" as I mentioned, expressions has no clue about this. If you wanted to change it, you'd have to push both advancing AND caching down lower into the actual compiled expression code. I think this would add way too much complexity, especially when it would only improve the ternary "if" feature in such cases.
