willemv opened a new issue, #19076:
URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/19076

   ### Describe the bug
   
   `starts_with(expr, 'literal')` functions are simplified to `expr LIKE 
'literal%'`
   
   The simplification process correctly escapes percent signs (`%`) in the 
pattern, but forgets to escape underscores (`_`). Underscores also have a 
special meaning in the LIKE operator: match any single character.
   
   ### To Reproduce
   
   Easy to reproduce with this query:
   ```
   # use a 
   SELECT starts_with('foobar', 'foo_'), starts_with('foo_bar', 'foo_')
   ```
   ----
   # current, incorrect result:
   true, true
   ```
   
   ### Expected behavior
   
   The query above should result in 
   ```
   false, true
   ```
   
   In other words, simplification of the `starts_with` function should escape 
underscores in patterns
   
   ### Additional context
   
   The `ends_with` is not simplified, so is not affected by this bug
