>> what is cardinalism? <<

I think you mean "Cardinality", which is a mathematical term that means the number of elements in a set. In SQL we define the cardinality of a table to mean the number of rows in that table.

When posting, inclusion of SQL (CREATE TABLE ..., INSERT ..., etc) which can be cut and pasted into Query Analyzer is appreciated.
