As I said, I think the result (being able to query tree structures like ancestors and descendants) is more important than the implementation, and I agree that this particular sqlite extension is too obscure. Just providing an sqlite utility to build or rebuild a transitive closure table might be more generically useful. I find that hierarchical data shows up pretty frequently in some data science problems.", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 707407567, "label": "Idea: transitive closure tables for tree structures"}, "performed_via_github_app": null}
