Hi,

I was playing around with some sql in postgres and got to wondering why
the optimiser can't figure out that rearranging some expressions can
result in massive improvements in the queue plan.  For example id + 5 <
100 compared with id < 100 - 5.

Is it simply that no one has go around to doing it or is there some
deeper reasons?  It's not really important I'm just curious.

Cheers,
