   I am not sure `is distinct from` is needed
   
   Trying it out with postgres:
   ```sql
   alamb=# select * from foo;
    x 
   ---
    1
     
    2
   (3 rows)
   
   alamb=# select * from bar;
    x 
   ---
    2
     
   (2 rows)
   
   alamb=# select * from foo intersect select * from bar;
    x 
   ---
     
    2
   (2 rows)
   ```
   
   And if `bar` does not have any nulls:
   
   ```sql
   alamb=# select * from foo;
    x 
   ---
    1
     
    2
   (3 rows)
   
   alamb=# select * from bar;
    x 
   ---
    2
   (1 row)
   
   alamb=# select * from foo intersect select * from bar;
    x 
   ---
    2
   (1 row)
   ```
   
   Which I believe is the same semantics as semi-join using an equality 
predicate (though now that I type this, perhaps since `NULL = NULL` is not 
true, then semi join with equality isn't correct. 🤔
