Fascinating.
What's happening here is not that the condition is being ignored, but
rather that what should be a simple filter condition (or a join filter
at the upper level) is being placed in the "Join Filter" slot of an
outer join at the inner level - where the condition's falsity doesn't
remove the whole row but causes it to be treated as unmatched.
My suspicion is that this is an interaction between lateral and join
reordering. Looking into it further.
