---------------------------------------------------------------

In my opinion, {{Decorrelator}} is broken and can't be fixed. We should be 
investing in the decorrelation rules instead, and I think we should deprecate 
{{Decorrelator}}.

(If we don't deprecate {{Decorrelator}}, how should we respond to issues like 
CALCITE-7057, which are likely to be duplicates of issues filed years ago that 
were never fixed?)

I am glad to see that CALCITE-7023 does not touch code outside of 
{{Decorrelator}}. But ideally it would add Quidem tests that can be used to 
check both implementations of decorrelation.

>             Project: Calcite
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 1.40.0

> In [CALCITE-7024] I have introduced an assertion (Litmus) check in the 
> decorrelator that the output relation type is identical to the input relation 
> type. This assertion is too strong, because the decorrelator sometimes 
> produces different column names in the result.
> This may be a bug, but in the meantime it can be side-stepped by making the 
> check a bit weaker: the types are identical up to column names.
