RE: Smells like oracle bug?

I had the same thing with null values and function-based indexes. Oracle does not like it.

It appears that Oracle is taking your hint quite seriously.

As there is no data in idx2 due to the only value in the id2 column being null, Oracle is not returning any rows.

Take idx2 out of the hint, and you get data.
