fix(db): terminate nested predicate subtraction - #1777
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change fixes nested conjunction handling in predicate subtraction. The removal helper reports progress, and recursion continues only when both predicates lose conditions. Tests validate structure and semantics with targeted and property-based cases. ChangesPredicate subtraction
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The PR narrowly fixes nested predicate subtraction and is backed by deterministic regression and broad semantic checks. A trivial test-harness gap remains because null results may skip assertions, but this follow-up is bounded and does not indicate a merge-blocking production risk. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Fix predicate subtraction so nested conjunctions cannot recurse forever. Queries whose requested and loaded predicates share a nested condition now compute their remaining demand instead of overflowing the stack.
Root cause
The common-condition path flattened nested
ANDexpressions when it found shared terms, but removed terms only from the top-levelAND. A shared nested term could therefore trigger a recursive call with an unchanged operand. The same call then repeated until JavaScript raisedRangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded.Normal tests missed this because their shared conditions were direct children of the top-level conjunction. A 100× oracle campaign found the asymmetric nested shape at seed
801267634, path2185:4:2:12:9:5:4:3.Approach
ANDterm.NOTterms.Key invariant
Every recursive common-condition simplification must strictly reduce both operands. If it cannot prove that decrease, predicate subtraction falls through to the existing non-recursive rules.
Non-goals
This does not redesign predicate normalization or add new subtraction laws. It only makes the existing common-condition reduction complete for nested conjunctions and explicitly terminating.
