   @beetle0915 Thanks for addressing the previous review comments. After 
another pass, I feel that the implementation has makes the already complex code 
significantly harder to understand and maintain.
   
   The original limitation also has a straightforward workaround by 
materializing the computed grouping expression before aggregation. For example:
   
   Expression key = $("a").isGreater(10);
   Table withKey = table.addColumns(key.as("group_key"));
   withKey.groupBy($("group_key"))
           .select($("group_key"), $("b").count());
   
   Since the issue occurs during query validation, does not cause incorrect 
runtime results, and can be avoided with the pre-projection above, I am 
inclined to keep the current behavior and defer this fix for now. We can 
revisit it later if there is a simpler design that does not add this level of 
complexity to the aggregation paths.
   
   What do you think?
