Hi Tom, we are very happy seeing this committed. Thank you for committing and Mike for the review!!
Your changes make sense to us, except one question: We think, you wanted to switch to DESC behavior (print out NULLS FIRST) in cases, where „USING“ uses an operator which is considered to be a DESC operator. Great, we missed that. But get_equality_op_for_ordering_op is called in cases, where reverse is false, but the part if (reverse) *reverse = (strategy == BTGreaterStrategyNumber); never changes this to true?
