    Description

      The optimizer pushes down filters for left anti joins. This unfortunately has the opposite effect. For example:

      sql("create or replace temporary view tbl_a as values (1, 5), (2, 1), (3, 6) as t(c1, c2)")
      sql("create or replace temporary view tbl_b as values 1 as t(c1)")
      sql("""
      select *
      from   tbl_a
             left anti join tbl_b on ((tbl_a.c1 = tbl_a.c2) is null or tbl_a.c1 = tbl_a.c2)
      """)
      

      Should return rows [1, 5], [2, 1] & [3, 6], but returns no rows.

      The upside is that this will only happen when you use a really weird anti-join (only referencing the table on the left hand side).
