me: Hey, why are records not included in Query X, but are included in Query Y? Tech support: It's because Query X references field Z

me: huh. what is field Z used for?
ts: we're not sure.
me: is field Z something we populate, or is it populated on the back end?
ts: we're not sure.
me: is there a screen where we can view field Z?
ts: we're not sure.
me: well, you guys wrote the database, right?
ts: ...........yes
me: and you guys wrote the software the updates the database, right?
ts: .........yes
me: so doesn't it follow you all should know what field Z does?
ts: yes
me: so what does it do?
ts: we're not sure.
at this point, the only thing that we're sure about is that
the only thing more destructive than having field Z in the query
is removing field Z from the query
