> The problem consist in a precision loss when the second operand of the
> division is a decimal with a negative scale. It was present also before 2.3
> but it was harder to reproduce: you had to do something like
> {{lit(BigDecimal(100e6))}}, while now this can happen more frequently with
> SQL constants.
> The problem is that our logic is taken from Hive and SQLServer where decimals
> with negative scales are not allowed. We might also consider enforcing this
> too in 3.0 eventually. Meanwhile we can fix the logic for computing the
> result type for a division.
