> The fused operator sel+ (select positive values) is applied for patterns like (X>0)*X and max(X,0) in order to eliminate unnecessary intermediates. It stems from a time when max was sparse-unsafe and hence inefficient over sparse data. However, meanwhile we mark scalar operators as conditionally sparse-safe depending on the given scalar constant c, which applies for max if c<=0. Hence, this sel+ operator is meanwhile completely useless and should be removed.
> Furthermore, we should also generalize the rewrites to rewrite the selection of negative values (X<0)*X to min(X,0)
