Carter Shanklin commented on HIVE-6348:
---------------------------------------
It's trivia at this point but ORDER BY in subquery is allowed by optional
feature F851 in the SQL standard, but there is no associated guarantee of
ordering that goes with it.

> select * from (select * from foo order by c asc) bar order by c desc;
> in hive sorts the data set twice. The optimizer should probably remove any
> order by/sort by in the sub query unless you use 'limit '. Could even go so
> far as barring it at the semantic level.
