Comment:

 Ah that's too bad. I guess we'll have to fix it on the Django side in this
 case.

 Does it only happen for `Min` and `Max` functions? If it's the case I'm
 tempted to suggest we address the issue by implementing `as_mysql` methods
 on these two functions that wrap the inner expression with a `CAST` like
 you did here when `self.output_field.internal_type() == 'DateTimeField`.
 The easiest way is probably to provide a different `template` to the super
 functioné

 Here's an example of how this was done for a duration handling of `Avg` on
 MySQL
