@chenghao-intel Yes, `cardinality` (now renamed to `numTuples`) is not used
in this PR and any optimizations utilizing it are intended for future work.
@marmbrus I don't understand the argument of using 1 for cardinality
(numTuples) here? It seems to me in either an inner join or an outer join, if
one side has numTuples equal to 0, the summation still provides a correct
overestimate. Additionally, numTuples is not used in this patch.
