> HIVE-10844 introduced a comparator factory class for operators that
> encapsulates all the logic to assess whether two operators are equal:
> https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/optimizer/OperatorComparatorFactory.java
> The current design might create problems as any change in fields of operators
> will break the comparators. It would be better to do this via inheritance
> from Operator base class, by adding a {{logicalEquals(Operator other)}}
> method.
