You already found out that you do not need lineitem here.

I still don't believe this suppkey=partkey

This subselect gives either true or false, but in any case always the
same result. You might want to add a conditionAND part.partkey=partsupp.partkey
Are you sure partkey is not unique? If it is unique you can replace
this subselect by a join.
| GROUP BY partsupp.partkey,partsupp.suppkey
| HAVING min(availqty)>(0.5*(sum(lineitem.quantity)::FLOAT))

| AND supplier.nationkey=nation.nationkey

| ORDER BY supplier.name;

The cost is now only 1141741215.35 compared to 2777810917708.17
before; this is an improvement factor of more than 2000. So what's
your problem? ;-)
