> The expression simplification currently has a small set of functions which it 
> knows are commutative (IsBinaryAssociativeCommutative).  "add" (and 
> "add_checked" are in this list.  This should be ok for 
> add(timestamp,duration) since this boils down to add(int64,int64) which is 
> commutative.  However, the way the kernels are currently implemented, we are 
> getting the incorrect output type.
> Concretely, we have kernels:
> {noformat}
> add_checked<Timestamp,Duration>() -> types[0]
> add_checked<Duration,Timestamp>() -> types[1]
> {noformat}
> A call is made with expression {{field_ref("x") + duration_literal}}.  This 
> call is bound to {{add_checked<Timestamp, Duration>}}.  However, the 
> expression is then simplified to {{duration_literal + field_ref("x")}}.  
> Oddly enough, the math in this case is correct, since it is just addition, 
> but the output type is not.  It assigns an output type of duration instead of 
> timestamp.
