Comment (by mampf):
Hi lukeplant,
thanks for your answer. Here are some additional thoughts.
I used this document:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#defer-fields
It doesn't state that that the primary key an never be deferred.
> only() is about only retrieving certain fields of objects
I thought I was doing this. But how useful is distinct when I need raw SQL
to make it useful anyway? I see no usecase for that. The docs say:
> However, if your query spans multiple tables, it's possible to get
duplicate results when a QuerySet is evaluated. That's when you'd use
distinct().
If I span over multiple tables, I always get ids as seen above. This is
why I will never have an use case for distinct() then.
Thanks for your answer. It made some thinks about how the orm works a
little clearer to me.
