Review Comment:
This is not the case, currently we have a special handling for SQL `DELETE`
statements to hardcode the ordeirng value as 0, and that is the only special
case.
For table that does not declare any ordering values, all the ordering values
are assigned as 0 to they got the same class.
In the other cases, the ordering value is just null if the field value
itself is null.
