Hello Andrey,
Thanks for the post #16441 .
I’m sorry, I think I did not express my point correctly. When I said I was not surprised, it did not mean I ignored the issue. I was not surprised because, at that time, this was the only or best solution to achieve the goal. Nowadays, queries are handled differently, and query building has become more modern and updated. I did not make this change because it required adding an additional table as a pilot table, and implementing it would have required code and database structural changes. I did not want to disturb your running site or risk any mishap.

Although, I want to clarify that I was aware of that particular function not causing issues. I only realized it was causing issues after the team shared the query.

I will review your other points and get back to you. The above is just my clarification.
