> Data Set :
> {code}
> {
>   "id" : 1,
>   "lst" : [1,2,3,4]
> }
> {code}
> The below query returns 4 rows instead of 1. The expected behavior in this 
> case is not documented properly
> {code}
> select id from `data.json` where 2 in (select flatten(lst) from `data.json`) 
> order by flatten(lst);
> +------------+
> |     id     |
> +------------+
> | 1          |
> | 1          |
> | 1          |
> | 1          |
> +------------+
> {code}
> The below projects a flatten. 
> {code}
> 0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs_eea> select id, flatten(lst) from `temp.json` where 
> 2 in (select flatten(lst) from `temp.json`) order by flatten(lst);
> +------------+------------+
> |     id     |   EXPR$1   |
> +------------+------------+
> | 1          | 1          |
> | 1          | 2          |
> | 1          | 3          |
> | 1          | 4          |
> +------------+------------+
> {code}
> We can agree on one of the 3 possibilites when flatten is not projected:
> 1. Irrespective of whether flatten is in the select list or not, we would 
> still return more records based on flatten in the order by
> 2. Flatten in the order by clause does not change the no of records we return
> 3. Using flatten in an order by (or probably group by) is not supported
> Whatever we agree on, we should document it more clearly. Let me know your 
> thoughts
