A key fundamental issue...
Question is: how could a column-based physical relation or relation
operation representation be superior in *any* case to some other
representation. Another way to ask the question: could join
consumption of IO resources under a column based system be increasing
any otherwise than exponentially as the number of join operation
increases?
