I'm curious, regardless of the syntax you choose, will LET or SELECT return the static row if there is no match for the clustering key, or return NULL row? I am asking because SELECT currently does not return any rows if there is no clustering key matching the WHERE clause, but a conditional UPDATE chooses the static row to check conditions instead, if it's present. -- Konstantin Osipov, Moscow, Russia
