请帮助我确认下面解释的行为是一个错误，或清楚地解释为什么它是正确的。 我很有可能误解了一些概念，但现在对我来说它看起来像一个错误。
以下所有示例都尽可能简化，以展示问题的核心。实际情况非常复杂，因此只有与查询构造原理相关的一般答案和解决方法才是可以接受的 欢迎您在评论中提出澄清问题，我会尽力回答 感谢您的关注。 ：）
为什么在最后一个示例（示例5）中collection (select count(1) ...个实例中的第一行中的collection子查询映射到表的所有行，而预期的结果是将每个collections实例映射到它自己的行？
同时正确选择cardinality(...)表达式from。{
如果以这种方式构造查询的where或create or replace type TabType0 as table of varchar2(100)
/
create table Table0( tab_str_field varchar2(100), tab_field TabType0)
nested table tab_field store as tab_field_table
/
insert into table0 (tab_str_field, tab_field) values (
'A',
cast(multiset(
select 'A' from dual union all
select 'B' from dual union all
select 'C' from dual
) as TabType0)
)
/
insert into table0 (tab_str_field, tab_field) values (
'B',
cast(multiset(
select 'B' from dual union all
select 'C' from dual
) as TabType0)
)
/
insert into table0 (tab_str_field, tab_field) values (
'C',
cast(multiset(
select 'A' from dual union all
select 'B' from dual union all
select 'C' from dual union all
select 'D' from dual
) as TabType0)
)
/
insert into table0 (tab_str_field, tab_field) values (
'D',
cast(multiset(
select 'A' from dual
) as TabType0)
)
/
select 'Initial table data' caption from dual
/
select * from table0
/
部分中使用的集合，则存在相同的情况（示例中未涵盖）。

SQLFiddle将所有查询放在一起。
答案 0 :(得分：2)
这是一个错误。在最后一个示例中向第二个内联视图添加/*+ NO_MERGE */提示将生成预期结果。有关示例，请参阅this SQL Fiddle。无论查询如何，该提示都不应该改变结果。您可以进行其他一些看似无关的更改，以生成正确的结果，例如删除部分列，或在中间添加未使用的ROWNUM。
Oracle正在重写您的查询以优化它，但做错了。您可以通过跟踪查询获得更多信息，但我怀疑您是否能够真正解决问题。现在解决它并向Oracle提交服务请求，以便他们可以创建一个错误并最终修复它。
