The issue here is that FROM, WHERE, etc., are all optional, where the operation (SELECT in this case) is not. If it were a proposal for a SQL21 standard to offer this as an optional method for query processing, I'd be all for it. However, the idea of "non-optional followed by optional" came from an era where that sort of thing mattered and it made sense. |
