Aha! I just discovered to my surprise that the corresponding array
queries gives the same result:
SELECT NULL = ANY(ARRAY[]::int[]);
?column?
----------
f
(1 row)
SELECT NULL = ANY(ARRAY[NULL]::int[]);
?column?
----------
(1 row)
I have no more objections; let's stick to the same null semantics as arrays and multisets.
