Not true selection: Treats negative true flags as false · case 01

The query violates its result contract: treats negative true flags as false.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Treats negative true flags as false. The faulty SQL is: SELECT id FROM a WHERE flag<=0

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the required relational semantics: Select IDs whose flag is false or unknown, excluding every nonzero flag. Correct SQL: SELECT id FROM a WHERE flag IS NOT TRUE

Unsuccessful approach: The alternative query still fails because it boolean NOT discards unknown flags. Attempted SQL: SELECT id FROM a WHERE NOT flag

Case contract

Select IDs whose flag is false or unknown, excluding every nonzero flag. Inputs are finite relations a=rows and b=refs with columns (id,k,v,w,flag,parent). IDs are unique within each relation, None is SQL NULL, keys are ASCII strings or None, and other values are integers or None. Return an unordered result bag as lists sorted by repr, preserving multiplicity unless explicitly distinct.

Why this case matters

Executes actual in-memory SQLite relational semantics. The fixtures exercise empty inputs, nullable groups, duplicate facts, known zero, negative values, peer ties and partition boundaries. This models the specified query contract, not optimizer performance, disk durability or a complete migration transaction.

Verification & scope

This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.

Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:37:04.587570+00:00.
