Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-7463:
--------------------------------------

I agree that there are both *nondeterministic* operations and truly *random* 
operations, but for these purposes we really care whether a data set is 
*repeatable*.

In some databases (such as BigQuery), CTEs are repeatable. If I write
{code}
with T as <some query>
select * from T
except
select * from T
{code}

Calcite's default behavior for CTEs is to inline them (as if they were views), 
so there is some chance that the two executions will produce different rows. 
(In CALCITE-6716, I proposed a {{REPEATABLE}} keyword to explicitly declare 
whether a CTE is repeatable.)

I think we need to parameterize the environment executing planner rules with a 
boolean mode. The mode determines whether two RelNodes that are deeply-equal 
are considered to be repeatable. It is valid to collapse
{code}
(SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2)
UNION
(SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2) 
{code}
into
{code}SELECT DISTINCT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2{code}
if and only if the mode is true.

>    Affects Versions: 1.41.0
>            Reporter: Zhen Chen
>            Priority: Major

> The {{UnionToFilterRule}} produces incorrect results when applied to inputs 
> that contain {{{}LIMIT{}}}.
> Specifically, the rule incorrectly collapses:
> {code:java}
> (SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2)
> UNION
> (SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2) {code}
> into:
> {code:java}
> SELECT DISTINCT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2 {code}
> This transformation is {*}not semantically equivalent{*}.
> *Reproduction*
> SQL
> {code:java}
> (SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2)
> UNION
> (SELECT mgr, comm FROM emp LIMIT 2) {code}
> h4. Plan Before
> {code:java}
> LogicalUnion(all=[false])
>   LogicalSort(fetch=[2])
>     LogicalProject(MGR=[$3], COMM=[$6])
>       LogicalTableScan(table=[[CATALOG, SALES, EMP]])
>   LogicalSort(fetch=[2])
>     LogicalProject(MGR=[$3], COMM=[$6])
>       LogicalTableScan(table=[[CATALOG, SALES, EMP]]) {code}
> *Plan After (Incorrect)*
> {code:java}
> LogicalAggregate(group=[{0, 1}])
>   LogicalSort(fetch=[2])
>     LogicalProject(MGR=[$3], COMM=[$6])
>       LogicalTableScan(table=[[CATALOG, SALES, EMP]]) {code}
> *Expected Behavior*
> The transformation should NOT be applied when any input of UNION contains 
> LogicalSort(That contains ORDER BY, LIMIT, OFFSET).
