    Tom,

    Mostly, by way of English language flow. It is simple to say "Show me the stuff that isn't there or show me what you've got IN there." No one says, "show me the stuff that you would join to that set that will limit it in the way that I expect". Or at least not anyone I've heard speak. Maybe Sheldon from "The Big Bang Theory". 🙂

    LOL - When asking were something is in SQL you should pretend you are talking to Sheldon and not to Congress (home of no value logic). SQL is a platform and application independent standard based on math. Anyone with knowledge of that understands comparisons in Set Theory and 3 value logic play out the same way everywhere, not just in SQL. Computers do Math. They don't go to social functions, win Ms. America, or join in with polite society. 😎
