> Certain optimizations are easier to perform when input expressions are in a canonical form.
> For instance: more duplicates can be found in AND/OR lists, case branches, etc.
> Note: this reordering is supposed to happen in RexSimplify only. In other words, RexBuilder would still produce "non-canonical" expressions.
> It is expected that {{RexSimplify}} might alter the expression, so if it converts {{5=x}} to {{x=5}} it should be just fine.
> The suggested rules are to be discussed, yet the following might be fine:
> 1) For AND, OR, IN: put "simpler" nodes first. The weight of a node could be either {{.toString().length()}} or a number of child nodes or something like that.
> The motivation is to simplify logic that handles "duplicate" entries. It won't have to consider "both alternatives" all over the place.
> 2) For comparison with literals put literal as the second argument
> 3) For binary comparison, put node with less weight to the left
