Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-13380:
-----------------------------------------
I think correct course of action here is to treat literal constants as big
decimal instead of current choice of double. That will get us consistent
behavior. I checked on MySQL and its doing the same thing.
However that will likely require more thought and work. So, I think correct
course of action is to revert this patch from branch-2.1 and then file a
follow-up jira on master to infer non-integeral constant literals as big
decimal.
> Decimal should have lower precedence than double in type hierachy

> Currently its other way round. Also, decimal should be lower than float.
