We may reject equi-joins between partitioned tables if the join column is not the director's key column. I’d use stronger language: if we do not reject an equi-join between a child and director table that isn’t written in terms of the director’s key column, then that is a bug in the query analysis code I added not too long ago, and you should file a bug. In this case AvgForcedPhotYearly is a child table whose director should be DeepSource.
