They are disjoint, but the things you can use them for overlap a lot. In particular, I'd dare say a majority of existing `#[derive]`-style macros might be easier to implement in a hypothetical reflection layer instead. Instead of takin

The majority of our queries have joins (plus our core logic often depends on fact table expansion with `arrayJoin()`s) before aggregations and we're doing fine. AFAIK whenever we hit memory issues, they are mostly due to high-cardinali
