Latest key deduplication: Drops the NULL-key group during survivor lookup · case 04
The query violates its result contract: drops the null-key group during survivor lookup.
Case contract
Keep exactly the greatest-ID row per key, treating NULL keys as a single migration group; return (id,k,v). 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.

Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
