Comment:

 Hi Keryn, thanks. I'm going to provisionally Accept this to let
 Mariusz/Simon have a look at it in PR.

 I wonder if we need the initial conditional at all... 🤔

 Untested, but same idea I think:

 {{{
 def get_col(self, alias, output_field=None):
     if alias != self.model._meta.db_table or (output_field and
 output_field != self):
         from django.db.models.expressions import Col
         return Col(alias, self, output_field or self)
     else:
         return self.cached_col
 }}}


 > I'm purposefully avoiding making further investigation/judgement about
 whether output_field != self is itself necessary, because it's ostensibly
 possible for a custom output_field to be provided which has the same
 creation_counter + model and I don't know how likely that is.

 Yes.
