I have a WIP branch with regression tests and for discussing a possible fix here: #26709.
This seems to be ... done? Even the "Rollout to production" has happened to some degree, right? @mgree , do you remember what is the status here?
I am... not sure. My understanding is it was deployed with a few customers excepted, but I'm not seeing rules for that in LD. 🤔

There is a lot of uncertainty around the variadic outer-join optimization that makes it not possible to estimate the time required with any credibility.
The work in Q1 will be to reduce uncertainty sufficiently to be able to estimate the work involved in completing an implementation. Specifically, read the code and discuss with relevant parties which aspects are likely to be incorrect; identify sections or constructs needing alteration (including in the main branch) to make the candidate implementation correct; define a test plan for verifying not just correctness, but interaction with other optimizations. Use all these to estimate how many weeks will be needed for doing the implementation, testing, and verification, if the investigation doesn't clearly show that this optimization should NOT be done.
